HI Dane Thanks for this. I'm going for the Plextor, partly because a back-up DAISY player is a bonus, but mainly because my primary pro' recorder is the Sony PCM D50 which is usable rather than fully accessible, so rather than go for an unknown quantity, I'm figuring the full access offered by the PLextor is the clincher. Am still coveting an IPod Touch though; sounds excellent, and would much rather be using mainstream products. Looking forward to hearing more about how everyone gets on with the Touch, for future reference. Thanks again. Amie

No, DAISY books won't play on the Ipod Touch at this time but are we talking players or recorders? Yes, the Ipod Touch is fully accessible or as accessible as the developers of applications such as Voxie Recorder Professional choose to make their applications, all the functionality is in the Ipod Touch or Iphone so its just a matter of pointing this out to the developers should the need arise and - thankfully - with Voxie, their's no need for this.
