hi mike,
NO. ON the sky accessibility site
http://accessibility.sky.com/news/sky-talker
says
For the first time Sky customers will be able to hear some of the on screen
text. It will vocalise the search and scan banner, programme synopsis
information and Sky+ functionality such as play, pause and rewind - making
navigation easier and quicker for blind and partially sighted customers.
Almost 2 million people in the UK have sight problems, around 100 people every
day begin to lose their sight and the number of people with sight problems is
predicted to double by 2050.
Sky Talker will integrate seamlessly with the Sky+ and Sky Digi boxes so
customers can continue to use their existing service without having to learn a
new User Interface.
Sky Talker will be compatible with Sky+HD boxes, from summer 2011.
