We are thinking in a Iriver H10 :-? The H10 is reaching the same level of functionality as the ipods. Battery life isn't as good as when using the iriver firmware, but is still OK. It's about 8-9 hours of playback on the 20GB model if you just leave it playing with the screen off. Battery life would obviusly be shorter if you're using the screen a lot, or playing games etc. I'm not sure about the battery life on the 5GB model, but it would probably be half to two thirds what iriver quote with their fimware. It will get better with time too. I'm not sure about accessibility for blind people. It should be OK. Most of the buttons are quite easy to find without looking at the device. The touchpad is the only thing I would be worried about. I think there are others on this list who would have more advice in this area. I think the H10 would be more suited for blind use than the iPod anyway. In order to collaborate with the project, I have seen the spanish > voices in the 'outdated voices' section (we are a spanish company, so, > the priority are spanish blind people).

Have a look at http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/VoiceBuilding for some info about creating .voice files.
