Subject: [access-uk] Sky Talker - a little bit more info
Hi. I mailed sky accessibel customer services last night for more detail.
This moves the story on a tiny bit as it gives some explanation of the HDTV
situation.
TEXT BEGINS
Thank you for your email.
I can confirm that as of the 26th October the Sky Talker box will be
available for sale.
Sky Talker is a device that will attach to the back of a Sky+ box or STB and
will give an audio description of the programme information through the
television
speakers. It is not recommended for use with Sky+ HD unless the customer is
not connecting through HDMI.
Kind Regards

Gotta love their usage of the phrase 'audio description' here in the wrong
context. Or at least, I think it's the wrong context. I hope this does actually
speak the EPG.
Has anyone ascertained how much this box is going to cost?
