> Yes, but does it support speech and Braille?

For speech, it supports Alva, BrailleLite and CombiBraille. For braille,
it supports a very long list, which can be seen on the brltty web site:

Speech is relatively basic, yes.

Yes.

Ok :)

> Does it support software speech?

It doesn't have internal support for software speech, and so on DOS it
doesn't support speech (that would require sound drivers, etc.)

> What about the DEC-talk express?

It doesn't support it.

Dave Mielke would sure be glad to add more hardware support to brltty.
