I would imagine that this unit will then qualify for VAT? this would certainly jack up the price.

Interesting indeed Brian.  Just wonder though if the price for this unit,
seemingly with a video output, will be equally excruciating!

I'm really sorry to say that about this unit, but if the audio only version
couldn't have been brought to market for a lesser price then I'm not sure it
was worth bringing to market at all.


Given also the success people on this list are having with the Nebula
Freeview cards and boxes, I am surprised anyone who has a computer or two
would seriously give the audio only version house room.

Let's see how much the one you can see, as well as hear, is going to cost.

Hi

I note that on the describe on-line web site
www.describe-online.com
within the Sight Village page, Portset have placed an advertisement on the
site which includes a description of the products they will be exhibiting.
Here is a quote concerning their talking Freeview receiver which is quite
relevant given recent list discussion:

Look out for the preview of the accessible video display version to provide
the normal set-top box capability with added voice information, hard-disk
recording,
spoken 7 day EPG and much more, ideal for the family for both sighted and
visually impaired.
