I still have one of those cassette decks, and compared to that, the
cartridge player is downright tiny. That said, while I think it a
shame there was never(at least to my knowledge) a walkman-style
cassette player capable of playing single tracks or adjusting playback
speed, those yellow bricks are
APH used to sell a 4-track player/recorder. It also had the 2 speeds and
analog VSC (variable speech control) as well.
I also seem to recall that there was another one called the talkman.

Assuming those for whom big buttons etc. is an advantage are a minority

The one thing I heard over and over again from humanware when they created
the new digital players for NLS is seniors.
They assumed that all patrons were older, something I thought was goofy
since I have been a member going back to age 7.

I doubt Humanware or NLS assume all patrons are seniors. I wouldn't be
surprised though if statistics show that a large population of NLS
patrons are seniors though. Many conditions affecgt eye sight as people
age, plus the RLF outbreak after WW II mean there are a large number of
