>>> I just received my Coby MP200 MP3 player from J&R, and it is truly 
>>> simple and totally blind accessible.  On top of the unit is the earphone 
>>> jack into which you plug the included earbuds.  The front panel has 5 
>>> discrete buttons arranged in a vertical column.  From top to bottom, the 
>>> buttons are skip forward, play/pause/power, skip backward, volume up and 
>>> volume down.  Pressing and holding the second button from the top for 5 
>>> seconds turns the unit on, and pressing and holding it again for 5 
>>> seconds turns it off.  That's all there is to it.  The bottom of the 
>>> unit has a USB connector that plugs directly into a USB port, although a 
>>> separate USB cable is also included.  You just plug it into your PC and 
>>> copy and paste the MP3 files you want to download.  Just install the 
>>> included AAA battery and you're good to go.  The sound quality is 
>>> surprisingly good, at least using a better pair of earbuds than the 
>>> included ones.  There is absolutely no learning curve, and no sighted 
>>> assistance is required to use it.  The included software, which I have 
>>> not tried yet, is fully JAWS accessible.  With 2gb of memory, it can 
>>> hold up to 1,000 songs.  This is probably the best blind accessible MP3 
>>> deal ever.  It is still available from J&R for $10 with free shipping, 
>>> but they probably won't last much longer at that price.  They make 
>>> wonderful stocking stuffers.  The hardest part of using this gizmo is 
>>> getting it out of the plastic blister pack which requires a heavy duty 
>>> scissors to cut open.
