[BlindHandyMan] Does iPod Nano Have Voice Over?

2010-03-31 Thread Bill Gallik
Can anybody tell me if the iPod Nano comes with a version of Voice Over on 
it?

The specific iPod Nano I'm looking at is:

MC027LL/A 8GB Generation 5 iPod Nano

Bill,

From what I remember, the Nano does not have VoiceOver, but ITunes places 
small mp3 files on the nano that allow it to announce the names of the 
files.  So it is nnot a complete screen reader, just simulated.

why not get the IPod touch? it's $300 for a 34 gig and it has voice over 
built right on it. Not sure about the nanno if it has it built on or do you 
have to install it with ITunes.

That is correct, iTUnes puts small MP3 files on the unit. It works quite well. 
I've got a previous generation iPod sitting here not being used any longer 
since i started using the iPhone. I however found the Nano to be a very nice 
device and very easy to operate.
