ABSTRACT:
An audio-book player includes a member capable of indicating to a blind person that a recording medium is loaded in or unloaded from the body proper. The audio-book player, which reproduces written data recorded on a recording medium as voice, includes a body proper into which the recording medium can be unloadably loaded and a member for identifying a loading state, in which the recording medium is loaded in the body proper, and an unloading state, in which the recording medium is unloaded therefrom. With this structure, the identifying member identifies the states by changing its tactile impression, so that blind persons can understand the states wherein recording medium is loaded in or unloaded from the body proper.
