508 at least the reference here does not cover enough ground here. I continue to submit that accessibility needs a flow diagram. We need to clearly define accessibility in objecctive terms and when we do that, we see that the shuffle, cd players and most of the rest fall short of 100 percent acccessible. Usable by many, yes, but not accessible unless you say accessible in this or that way. In other words, there is acccessible meaning I like it and can use it therefore it's accessible and It meets all of the needs of as many people as possible.

Travis is right.  That doesn't mean the shuffle might not meets an
individual's needs, but it is disingenuous to frame that sort of a
feature gap as an accessibility issue.  The 508 criteria can help sort
this out.  From 1194.31(a):  At least one mode of operation and
information retrieval that does not require user vision shall be
provided.  Check!
