I have a zen stone, which is completely accessible for a blind person, as it has no screen. It probably wouldn't be very useful to a sighted person, because they like looking at the screen for things.

aww man. I want to get one with a screen. Are there any with a screen that is accessible? I'd like a lot of space like 2 gb or more. I've only found cheap 1 gig ones and I'm not into them.

Same here. I have a giant music collection, so I've been looking for ones that have a lot of storage space, but I'm definitely not into Rockbox.

There is another board on here about the new Ipod and Itunes that are accessible. Here is the link again, read more about it at:
http://www.apple.com/accessibility/itunes/vision.html

If I remember the one I looked up is sold for about $140 and holds 8 GB, there are larger ones, and this is if I remember right. But I am still looking up more info on this. And for those who will cry that Itunes isn't accessible, Itunes8 is suppose to work with screen readers.
Hope this info helps.

Folks, the new IPods talk and ITunes 8.1 is quite accessible. The only thing that isn't availble yet is full access to the store but you can search for things, by them, listen and subscribe to podcasts, and listen to some excellent radio. Get yours today. I got the 16 GB and love the thing. It's nice to actually be able to brows my collection and find something.

I've heard about the talking ipods and mp3 players, but never actually seen one.

Oh i heard about those talking ipods, and it kind of makes me wish I hadn't bought my mp3 player I have. The one I have is not all that great, but it's 8 gigs, has a radio, and all that! By the way i dont use it much, I prefer my Braille Note and external hard drive, because that's accessible in all ways! Lol!
