Dean, I was able to use it without difficulty using Window Eyes 5.5 beta 2. However, it did require using the mouse keys in order to use most any function.
I installed the UMS firmware in order to be able to quickly and easily transfer files and folders both to and from the Iriver. Be advised that the UMS firmware upgrade file for the 799 is not the same as the file for the 899. One other consideration. If you opt to use the UMS firmware, you cannot play Ogg/vorbis files if I understood the cautionary message on the Iriver site correctly.

Can a competent user of the JAWS cursor or Window-Eyes mouse pointer use it? If I get one of these, I would want to transfer the occasional recording to the computer, not do a lot of transfers, and not use it as a mass storage or listening device. If using the proprietary software means I can choose to make higher-quality recordings, I might want to do so. I assume this quality improvement also applies to the 799 or 899 though I haven't researched the matter fully yet.
