Hi.
My Dad has a condition that affects his peripheral nervous system called CIDP.
At the moment, his hands are shaking a lot.
He's not a big book reader so he's not interested in a Kindle, but I think he might enjoy listening to some audiobooks (and the odd Lynyrd Skynyrd album!).
MP3 manufacturers are all trying to outdo each other with how small they can make their players or have really fancy input methods. Sadly, when your hands shake, tiny buttons, touch screens and scroll wheels are all impossible to use.
Does anybody know of any MP3 players that have pretty big buttons?
He can handle a remote control, so the buttons don't need to be fruit machine sized, but tiny, bunched-up ones are a nightmare to use. Has anybody come across something like what I'm after? Seems like a real gap in the market for people with arthritis and other conditions like my Dad.
Thanks.
