Hi Dane! Thanx for this info.
Perhaps I should firstly look at replacing the iriver battery. At this stage I have 40 gb of memory which is good enough for me. I use a small headphone amp from headroom. And with that kind of equipment a line out socket on the mp3 player would do the trick very nicely. The problem I think with the docking equipment for something like the touch is that it still uses the headphone output on the mp3 player. Must say I have been wondering about the possibility of replacing my iriver's battery. It's not the smallest of machines but definitely not something I would throw away!

They're available. Either that or perhaps you could take a different approach that may have advantages over what you're using now for example an Ipod Touch. Firstly you get more memory, then you get more accessibility, a range of docks and accessaries that give you the "stand line out" you're craving and finally bluetooth connectivity which may come in handy given the fact that - as I understand it - you have a hearing impairment so that way you can use a wide variety of connectivity solutions to interface the Ipod Touch right to your hearing aids thus not impacting on any audio quality.
