Dunno Dave, but I'll check it out tonight unless someone gets there
before me during the day.  Interestingly, when you change the settings
of what's on the screen using the Info button, this is not echoed by the
speech.  Also I wondered what people think of the voice.  
 
Cheers now.

        I ordered one yesterday so it should be here in a day or so.
One thing, can you access all the menu information?  i am thinking
particularly of the signal strength so that you can find out the best
aerial position?

        Not much to add to what others have said here, but here's my
twopence worth.  

        Having got my Sonus1XT home last night, I had it set up,
including alarms and presets in under five minutes.  I personally don't
mind the spelling of the radiotext as this is pretty much how it goes
through on the screen anyway.  One thing I would welcome would be the
ability to vary the speed of the speech so that you can scroll through
the stations more at your own speed than at that of the voice.  But this
is a fine product and I fear those of us who plunged in and bought Evoke
1s and 2s may now regret our early enthusiasm and impatience as we
replace them.  

        Cheers now. 

        Ian
