Greetings! I got an old external DECTalk from our commission for the blind. I tried using it briefly yesterday with the Speakup-modified Fedora 10 installation CD. It talked, but even at Speakup's rate 9, seemed notably slower than my TripleTalk LT. I'd thought that a DECTalk, even the oldest ones, wwas supposed to be able to speak at something over seven hundred words a minute. I didn't see anything on the device itself for adjusting its speech rate. Is there some software solution for this, or am I probably stuck with the slow speech if I use that device? Are newer versions of the DECTAlk faster? Thank you for any info. Al
