I have one of those as well. You can adjust the volume too which can be useful. I also have an RNIB Radio controlled talking clock/temperature sensor (Ref CC58) which is very stylish. Not sure what the display is like and it's not mains operated.

It doesn't have any visual display but is very stylish , radio controlled with a good male voice.We bought 3 last year and not been disappointed .

I am ideally looking for the following features.* LCD display with easy to see font, preferably good contrast that doesn't look like an eyesore when someone sighted sees it.* most if not all functions spoken. * must be mains powered with battery backup. * must have a decent voice.* if radio controled to automatically syncronise the time, then that would be great.* if it looks stilish then all the better.Cobolt used to do one with most of the above features, but its not clear if they still do one with an LCD display with decent sized font/contrast. I have found the following clock from RNIB. has anyone used this clock? if so, what did you think of it and is there a better option out there?http://www.rnib.org.uk/shop/Pages/ProductDetails.aspx?productID=CC6701 Many thanks in advance, Mo. ** To leave the list, click on the immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe] ** If this link doesn't work then send a message to: ** access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ** and in the Subject line type ** unsubscribe ** For other list commands such as vacation mode, click on the ** immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=faq] ** or send a message, to ** access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the Subject:- faq** To leave the list, click on the immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe] ** If this link doesn't work then send a message to: ** access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ** and in the Subject line type ** unsubscribe ** For other list commands such as vacation mode, click on the ** immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=faq] ** or send a message, to ** access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the Subject:- faq
