[blparent] Audio materials

[Veronica Smith]

I was too until about 9 months ago.  Well, that's not exactly true, we still
listen to CD's and Gab still listens to tapes. V

I just put the mp3 books on the micro SD card of my cell phone and play
them over the speaker for my son.
There is software out there to convert cds to mp3s.  Haven't touched a
CD player either in ages.

Levelstar has something called the icon which is pretty cool.  It's
around $1500 I think.  For something cheaper and that is more portable,
I think some of the new i-pods have talking menus and you could get a
docking station with speakers from best buy or something like that.
