If you have an available slot on your system, you could buy and install
a usb card. They're real easy to install and not that expensive.

Subject: Re: Audible.org and the Nuvo Player
I have the Muvo player, and I find it quite accessible. I don't believe
it has any display on it at all, so I don't think a sighted person uses
it any differently than a blind person would. It also doesn't come with
any software, so you just use Windows Explorer to copy MP3's or WMA's
over to the Muvo just like you'd copy them to any other drive. Of
course, this assumes that you're able to plug it into your computer
using a USB port, but I think this would be the case with any MP3
player. I got the Muvo because it was so easy to use. I wasn't just
looking for accessibility but easy to use, and I haven't been
disappointed with the Muvo!

Subject: [VICUG-L] Audible.org and the Nuvo Player
I subscribed to Audible Dot Com and got a Nuvo player for playing
Audible books and MP3's. The trouble is I don't have a proper USB port
to plug the player's plug to transer from PC to the player. Is there a
good adapter for a three-year-old PC to get this working? Are there any
good and manageable MP3 players you can recommend for a totally-blind
consumer? Thanks.
