Hello Robin, The recorders you listed do not have voice feedback. The new range, DS-55, DS-65 and DS-75, have improved voice guidance, including spoken battery status. Also, they are about half the price of the previous DS range. The DS-55 has 1GB memory, the DS-65 2GB and the DS-75 4GB. The DS-75 has manual recording control and the highest recording format is PCM, with the sound files in wav format. Mind you, you'll only get about 6 hours recording time. I understand the RNIB are waiting for stocks of these recorders, but I purchased my DS-55 from Speak-IT Solutions last January. Hope this helps. Best wishes, Clive Pallett
