I'm not sure I'd like one on the computer, well, yes but not as the main DAB
in the house if you know what I mean.
Thanks
Trace
Hi Trace, it is a digital one yes but it doesn't talk. The only one i am
aware of is the pure one. And also there was one you could put onto your pc
which talked using your screen reader.

Does it talk though and is it digital?
Tell me more, mine's an old analogue radio with a cassette player/recorder, I've had it years.

This was in the British Wireless for the Blind Fund Newsletter last summer.
The page is at http://www.blind.org.uk/preserve/symphony_launch.htm
Quoted text begins here.
The world's very first CD radio cassette recorder designed especially
for use by blind and visually impaired people was unveiled by BWBF at
London's Royal Festival Hall on 22 June.
Symphony has been commissioned by BWBF and took two years to develop at
a cost of over £1m which includes the first 5,000 sets. The equipment
has been designed and developed by Roberts Radio working to a brief
from the Fund. The new set has a number of special features including
the world's first CD bookmark facility in a portable unit. Within the
radio, there is an audible frequency finder with pre-set controls.
Quoted text ends here.
Maybe the Sumphony is the radio you're referring to. Not sure whether BWBF sell products directly to the public.
Vince.

come
: out and whether it will be any smaller than the pure talking digital
radio.
