I'm guessing Rockbox doesn't support the Olympus WS_311M Recorder/Player. The only player from Olympus listed off of rockbox.org is m:robe 100. It's obviously moot now, but if you have any suggestions about Rockbox, I too would recommend checking out rockbox.org. You aren't going to get better instructions or a more authoritative source of information. IMHO, installing rockbox isn't the same as installing a Windows application; you're replacing your units firmware with open source firmware. You have to be prepared to do some reading and research. If you have any specific questions there are a lot of people and resources willing to help. Furthermore, Rockbox wasn't designed to be used by the blind, so getting it to talk and speak the files and directories on your unit will take some time and effort. If you aren't willing to go to rockbox.org and put in the time reading up on what's all involved then Rockbox probably isn't for you. Don't get me wrong, IMHO, Rockbox is well worth the time and effort; I just don't want people going in thinking that my clicking on a few buttons in an installation wizard then they'll have a talking MP3 player.
