Dave, the Zeitgeist is a brilliant clock by the way.  It has lots of useful 
features, a really clever little thing.

Hi Steve,

Do you have a website for it? Do you even sell it? and if so, how much?

Cheers

Regards

Hi Caroline,

The Caretec Zeitgeist is a nice clock.  No displays, just three buttons on the 
whole clock, and probably one of the smallest clocks I have seen.

There are timers and alarms on it, but of course, you don't have to use them.

All the best

Steve

Subject: [access-uk] Talking Clock Recommendation

Hello,

I have been asked to recommend a talking clock to a fairly elderly lady.
Her requirements are that the clock should have a natural-sounding voice, be 
fairly small and easy to set up and operate, and not cost more than around £25.

The model of clock I have is no longer being produced, so I have looked on both 
the Cobolt and RNIB sites to see what's currently available.

From what I've seen, and the audio samples I've listened to, the talking cube 
clock from the RNIB seems to be probably the most suitable.  I'd be interested 
to know if anyone has any experiences, good or bad, with this clock, or if you 
think any of the alternatives would be better.

Thanks,

Caroline.
