Although the Goodmans box is very accessible, it is of very low quality.  It 
feels cheap, the sound and picture quality feels of something you would have 
bought by Dixons own brand 10 years ago, and sadly the processor used is far 
too under powered to drive the TTS without stutter, you will have to turn the 
speech rate down to help prevent this.  If anyone is thinking of buying this 
then don't, wait until the next version.  I sent mine back.
