I have an Iriver IFP799 which differs slightly cosmetically from the 899 but functionally is the same. It is quite accessible if one is willing to do some menu memorization or write a cheat sheet. I do hope however that Rock Box ultimately works on this thing as my memory sure ain't what it used to be.

Granted you *will* need sighted help to access the menus, but once you do, you can operate it like any other mp3 player. Plus if you can get rockbox installed on other models like the h140 or h340 series, that makes it accessible as well. So, gotta agree with Nick here, what utter bullshit.
