Re: I-pod questions
I don't know about the IBM, but IPODS can play MP3 WMA, and wave files, as well as Audible books. They're not that accessible for blind users. I know there is an alternative to Itunes, but still its not accessible. Access World did a review of the Ipod. - Original Message - From: "Kurt E.

Does an I-pod take CDs and compress them, or does it take them as they are. And, in that case, can you put MP3s on there. Also, what will I pay for a good size one and can it be used with an IBM?

Re: I-pod questions
The Ipod isn't a CD player, so no you can't do that with CD's. Yes, look at the descriptions of the different models and most if not all will be compatible with Windows, which simply means they can be formatted for Windows or the Mack. - Original Message - From: "Kurt E.
