My sighted partner does uses iTunes on a non-Linux PC; let me explain: - at the VERY VERY first sync you need (/mandatory) iTunes so that the device should be recognized and synced: there is no way yet to do this under Gnu/Linux - but, it's important to have a look at the libimobiledevice.org project, these libs and tools are now shipped with Ubuntu, they do have a ML where people are exchanging thos experiences in using i(Products) with the libimobiledevice packages. AFAIK the iProducts may be synced with Rhythmbox, GTKpod or Amarok, all these packs are available on your Ubuntu distro if wanted! But I'm not sure about those usability with Orca aso!

Re: ipod
There is a program for this, and it was mentioned on this list a few weeks ago, but I don't have an Ipod, so did not pay attention to the name. I think I saw it when browsing g the synaptic package manager. On Sat, 18 Dec 2010, mattias wrote: Any blind users here If so Have you completely switch to linux? If so How do you manage your ipod?

Calibre supports a wide range of devices, including the iPhone, iPad and iPod. There is a section dedicated to those device in the FAQ [1]. Calibre is in the Ubuntu repositories and the version in Maverick is 0.7.18 which is very close to the latest so it should work fine.
