Date: Sat, 14 Jan 2006 14:36:09 -0600 If rockbox ever gets on the ipod, I think we'd have a lot more blind users at any rate. For one thing, ipods are a hell of a lot easier to find. For another thing, Ipods for the most part, have a better user interface. I personally can't wait for this to happen. Thank you to the rockbox team for all your efforts.
