[Electronics-talk] Fw: A Talking MP3 Player for Only $75

[Christopher Chaltain]

Looks like a nice player, but with a lot of products, some of the claims
seem to be a bit of a reach. Rockbox, which you can get preinstalled
through a 3rd party company on different players, gives you an eyes free
talking MP3 player at about the same price. There were also several
screenless MP3 players, like the Creative Zen Stone, that obviously
didn't require you to look at the screen and were totally accessible. Of
course, these options each had their pros and cons compared to this MP3
player.
