---quoted message--- Hi Alex pardon my nosiness here so if you don't wish to answer either to me directly on on the list I'll understand, but what sort of price range are we looking at there my friend, Well, my price range is under $100. and is your choice of DEC-Talk just a preference, or for some other reasons is it essential that your synth be a DEC-Squaclk. No, but it's the only synth I've been able to get my hands on lately. I haven't seen the other ones you mention. Hey, I'll take whatever's cheap, and supported by speakup! By essential I mean, do you have a hearing impairment or other disability which makes the DEC-Squalk easier for you to use and more preferable than other synths, reason I ask is because from I've seen in the used synth market of late, other models like the Accent SA, Artic Transport, etc, are usually priced cheaper in this market than are DEC-Talks of any sort. So, if you could live with using another synth I'd probably search for other models in edition to the DEC-Squalk if price and the bottom line are the primary criterium of your search. Hth!
