Hi, Steve,

I can only speak to the operation of the Sony ICD-B25 which is about 7 years old now. It is quite easy to use with the audio beeps function turned on (which is by default). The clock and alarm functions are totally inaccessible but all the basic and intermediate functions are fine, such as:
record, stop, playback and skip forward and back;
splitting a recording, joining 2 recordings, erasing a recording;
moving from one folder to another, and so on.
But I cannot say what features remain accessible in currently-available models.
As for price, 7 years ago I paid about $75 but that's not going to tell you what they cost today since recording capacities have improved so dramatically and features added like stereo recording.

Jeff, generally speaking, how easy is it for someone totally blind to operate this recorder and about how much does it cost?

Thanks.

I'm a little late on this thread. I have an older Sony ICD-B25 voice recorder which does append. On the hunch that Sony still makes recorders with this feature I checked out the first one I found on Amazon: Sony ICD-P520 Digital Voice Recorder with 256 MB Built-in Flash Memory and USB
and found this in its feature list:
* Add Recording: Insert and add additional information to any message without affecting the original.
HTH,
Jeff

Right now, I'm checking out the Olympus Recorders. It appears there is no voice recorder that will allow me to append to a file once it's been saved.

Thanks for all of you who wrote on this topic.

But if you're just looking for a voice recorder, the Plextalk or the Stream might be overkill, depending on the needs.

Does anyone know of a small voice recorder that has folders capability and
 also has the ability to append to a voice recording?

 Thanks.

 Steev
