Could he learn Braille or read large print? If he can't even read 
large print, I would suggest the Hadley School for the Blind 
online Braille course: www.hadley.edu.  Hope this helps!

Hello Bonnie,

I am visually impaired, and I have an Olympus DM 520 and I can 
read the
screen ok, but it also has speech, and tells you the battery 
level, and what
folder you are on and what file you are on.  It is super easy to 
use.  I love
mine.  One thing though, I accidentally got rid of the speech on 
mine, and I
miss that function, and I want to get that back, but I don't know 
how.  Well,
I hope that helps.

Sincerely,
Nikki

Hello everyone,

I am working at an agency serving blind and visually impaired 
folks and I
work particularly with seniors.  Recently I spoke with a 
gentleman, minister,
79 years old and still wanting to do his Sunday services.  Very 
sharp but
cannot read at the pulpit any longer.  I suggested recording his 
sermons and
then using a headphone and giving them as he listened through the 
headphone.
I told him that I would recommend a recorder.  I went to the 
Olympus site and
there are several for about $50.  Most of these were in the 800 
series.  I did
not see where any of them had speech and though most of them said 
large font
LCD, I just wanted to know if there is anyone out there who uses 
one and is
visually impaired.  How easy is it to read the display.  Any help 
or ideas
that you might have will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks a bunch,

Bonnie Lucas
