Actually there are circuit schematics for a doubletalk speech synthesizer on www.cucat.org under projects, costs about $200 to build with the chips from rc systems, does both USB and serial port although it is powered off USB. Might need some driver hacks to work with speakup if a developer wants a test unit we could sort something. This is only open to developers not curious users Regards, Kerry. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Gaijin" <gaijin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <speakup at braille.uwo.ca> Sent: Friday, March 12, 2010 3:17 AM Subject: Re: Installing Fedora 12 From The Live CD Using Orca | On Thu, Mar 11, 2010 at 11:51:12AM +0000, Georgina Joyce wrote: | > > nicer.
