to get an Apple ID go to https://appleid.apple.com
there's a big blue button on right side of the page.
(I'm not sure how your screen-reader may work.)

Yes, you will need an Apple ID to download apps.

I can't help about the voice-over issue. You might also try in the iPad and
the apple-iphone groups, as well as any visually-impaired-related groups --
I'm sure someone in one of them must have an iDevice!

Apple Support may also have some information on accessibility, either online
or by phone, and be able to help you with any sign-up problems.
People at the Apple Stores, if you can get to one, are very helpful.

I use iTunes to transfer content. There are other ways to do it -- and now
much may be done over wi-fi (with iTunes) -- but I just stick with what I
sort-of-know -- hook up the cable to my pc, make my selections in iTunes,
and sync, or copy docs in apps that use file-sharing even without syncing.

Good luck and Have Fun!

Howdy,
I am totally new to Apple products and have an iPod Touch 4g to
evaluate.have to return it in about 2 weeks. Should have joined this
group sooner.

First, can someone give me a link so I can get an Apple id? I assume I
need this to download apps.

So far I pretty much have the navigation figured out. What I need to
learn soon is what app works well for reading documents, mostly recipes.
I will be using VoiceOver as I am blind so the app must be fully
compatible. Does either the txt or doc format work better in this
regard? I can use either.

I installed the iTunes Manager. I kind of have that figured out too.
Are there other apps that can make the task of transferring documents to
the Touch easier?

I think that is all I need for now. If all goes well, I will get my own
Touch. Thanks. ;)
