Subject: Rockbox, cable boxes and TiVo [was "RE: getting speech on my ipod"]
One thing to remember is that Rockbox is written and maintained by
audiofiles who want to get the most out of their portable media players. I
don't know that cable boxes and satellite receivers have that same kind of
passionate interest in them. We're also fortunate, as a blindness
community,
that the Rockbox developers are as committed as they are to the eyes free
use and the accessibility of Rockbox.
One thing I have wondered about though, is how easy it would be to make a
talking TiVo. It's already running Linux, and you obviously have a sound
card built into the TiVo. I know it wouldn't be trivial, but I can't help
but think that it also wouldn't be that hard.

Robert,
If you have the 4th Generation iPod Nano, you can use iTunes to send
voice clips to it that will speak the menus, folders and tracks. This
doesn't give you a true screen reader like VoiceOver on the iPhone and
iPod Touch, but may do what you want. Rockbox has also been
mentioned, and it works in a similar fashion, using recorded voice
clips to speak menus, folders and tracks; but replaces the firmware of
the iPod, making it no longer a true iPod. If you decided to go with
Rockbox, you would need to see if it supported the iPod model you have.
