It a great idea, DAISY Playback on an iPod and your not the first to think of it but...
Unless you have some kind of contact with Apple this will not happen without their help. The accessible iPod Nanos have no means of supporting software other than those made by Apple and the iPod Touch has no means of being accessible to the blind and no support for text to speech. You could flash the iPod with RockBox software but that is rather like doing brain surgery on your iPod and makes it user interface no longer that of an iPod. If the DAISY books are produce correctly, with no encryption or DRM then it is possible to use the DAISY Pipeline to generate a playlist with will treat the book as if it were an album with a whole lot of tracks but that is about as close as your going to get I fear.
