-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Yes, this is correct. The Millennium 20/40 units from Freedom Scientific can be used as tts speech synthesizers with speakup or any other screen reader since firmware version 4.0, or 4.1. Actually I've just looked at the freedom scientific site download section, and I see that firmware 4.0 can be downloaded for free, so the tts functionality is available since 4.1 and higher, because I remember that the speech box mode was reintroduced in the first non-free firmware update, and that appears to be 4.1, rather then 4.0. As far as I know, the Millennium 20/40 would be used with a screen reader as a doubletalk lt, the speakup keyword for which is ltlk I believe. I'm going to post to the fs support list, so we can end the speculation once and for all.
