Easy to use MP3 player for elderly



Automated Home DiscussionPerhaps the inverse of what we are all use
to.

I'm trying to find an easy to use MP3 player that an elderly, semi disabled
person can use. It's for listening to podcasts. Ideally should have a
casette style interface with seperate at least finger sized buttons for
stop start play forward reverse and next track.

I've not found anything as a seperate MP3 player so am looking instead now
at Internet Radio or DAB radio - some of which have a USB or SD socket.
That would work as it's not downloading the material that is the problem (a
handy young person does that) but instead putting it on to something that
can be managed easily. However I haven't been able to find anything where
the interface makes sense.

I think the radio approach is the way to go, mains operated with speakers
would be a good solution, any good product suggestions ?
