Yeah, but think of how much more useful the unit could be if it was a 
full-function notetaker, laptop computer, radio-TV receiver, and whatever 
else you want to hang onto it. No, thanks, I don't want to see either of 
these functions incorporated into the BP under any circumstances.

Think of how much more useful the unit could be. I know doubletalk would
probably charge money for the synth option, but it could all be done in
firmware, maybe there could be a special firmware users would have to pay
for if they wanted the synth.
The calculator I think should be more considered, it would hardly take any
extra space nor time to develop at least a simple one; and we all could use
a calculator now and then.

Hi Kevin and list:

Yes, both have been thought of. Neither is justified in the context of a
portable device whose reason for being is to read books. If you still need a

USB synthesiser, it is available as the Tripple talk.

Cheers,
Dave
