Do you mean the saregama Caravaan? If so, I bought her one of those and it just didn't cut the mustard.
The built-in collection either didn't have songs that she liked (from the '40s), or they weren't clustered together, or were mixed up with other songs.
I could load a flash disk with her playlist to plug into that player, but it wouldn't know what to play at what time (calm songs in the early and late hours, peppier numbers on other days, festival specific numbers on some days). This was a big deal. I can even change the playlist from elsewhere (a script automatically mirrors the playlist that I maintain on a server)
Bluetooth streaming is possible with the device, but not an option for my MIL ... that would require her to learn to use a cellphone.
