Instead, you'll hear a synthesized voice speaking the names of menus, songs, and artists. To take advantage of spoken menus, you will need: List of 4 items • iPod nano (4th generation) • iTunes 8 • Mac OS X v10.4.11 or later • Windows Vista or Windows XP Home or Professional (Service Pack 3 or later) list end Block quote end Not only is this great news for blind consumers but this is great news for consumers who have a hard time reading small text.
