I haven't bought one of these MP3 players myself, but the last time I
was shopping around for a Sansa e280, I was tempted. Here's what I spent
my time doing getting that Sansa e280:

I am informed that if one is not well versed in the protocols involved in
installation of software on a portable device, that it is possible to turn
it into a brick.
I plan to purchase one of these devices, and frankly, in spite of my level
of experience, I would be pleased to give the

with. I have one of his units and it's excellent.

Not just any MP3 player, there is a list at rockbox.org which informs
you which MP3 players Rockbox supports.

Dear list, I'm not a technically advance person. However, I will like
to know whether I can install rockbox on any MP3 player.

I remember a year or 2 ago there was some talk of using espeak on rock
box, this meant that you could read text files on your sansa mp3 player.
Do any of your mp3 players do this if so I might be interested. thanks
in advance.

Houdy las,
Don't sweat him buddy. Perhaps somebody's a bit miffed cause they didn't
think about capitalizing on a great product first. Remember bro, there's a
lotta jealousy in the world. I'm a technically savvy person by lots of
standards, however, I'm never one

Thanks Tony! I think he just missed his medication or something.
Anything in particular you want me to cover? Send me a private email
if you have anything you want me to go over in the presentation.
Thanks!

Hi Laz:
I also do a weekly technology show for the blind, focusing on mainstream
technology and how this is made accessible and saw your company yesterday.
Would you be willing to come on next weekend sometime to talk about your
company and its products?
Please send me an email offline and
to both of you.
Can we move on?

Okay, well I'd like to make it clear that I certainly don't want to ruin
anyone's reputation and I agree
It may come as a shock to some on this list, but not all of us want
to pay hundreds of dollars to be a part of the ISheep herd. I am a
recent customer of Accessible Electronics, and a satisfied one at
that. I wonder if it just might be time to return this list to
PC-audio, as opposed to
. I
haven't got one of these yet, but I enjoyed the opportunity to investigate.

The Rockbox folder is very complex. In order for files to be spoken,
there are some utilities which must be run. These are in another folder
which is a part of what Mr. Mesa has in his Sansa players.
I think

Hi Dane,
I'm glad they have your permission to do what they feel. Phew! that's
a load off my mind! LOL!
I don't know if you got up on the wrong side of the bed or what, but
your comments are a bit off the mark to say the least.
First of all, I don't make a huge profit as other companies which
I guess you couldn't fit this extra attempt at character assassination
on your first volley. LOL!
That's right! When a person purchases an affordable Talking MP3
Player from us, it arrives speaking out of the box, and the customer
doesn't have to do anything to set it up, as it's already set up
Hi Matthew,
Thanks for the benefit of a doubt, which Dane completely neglected to
give to a complete stranger.
I don't charge for Rockbox and never have. I make available an
alternative to the higher-priced MP3 players for thos who don't have
the know-how, time, or experience to do for
Well, thank you Dane, for giving everyone their freedom of choice!
LOL! Getting a big head there, aren't you big fella?
You're saying you didn't want to ruin anyone's reputation? Um, isn't
that what you just attempted to do with your character assassination
attempts?
Dane, I don't know you

to change the things I can, and the weaponry to make a difference.

Hi
Only have one comment to this, if the blind want to be continually
ripped off then go here, why would anyone apy extra to buy a MP3 player
and have Rockbox installed when they can do it themselves, rockbox is
available free of charge but its a free country so do as you feel.

Hmm, not sure about this, bordering on going against the Rockbox open licence
agreement, as you'll see from his web site he's selling Rockbox installed on
the player.
