Ken,

if you mean the hard disk iPods, there are better MP3 players,
especially for blind people. If I wanted to listen to Audible, I'd
proberbly buy a BookPort or BookCourier. These machines are equipped with
a DoubleTalk. The new fifth generation iPod is officially called iPod
with video. It has the old touch sensitive scroll wheel. There's special
software like Anapod Explorer, which makes using it easier
for blind people, but why go for something which is a bit difficult to
use, when there's stuff which works well right out of the box?
