Hi
Thought some of you may be interested in this info that I received from offcom.
Dear Francis
Thank you for your email. We contacted Sky and it passed on the following
information to us:
"We are in the final stages of development of a product currently called the
Sky Talker. We hope to be able to launch this product in April 2010. It has
been developed in conjunction with the RNIB and translates some of the text on
screen to audio which is obviously of great assistance to visually impaired
customers. We would hope to be able to issue a press release raising awareness
of the imminent launch later this month and as said earlier have the actual
product in market in April 2010. We will also be briefing our internal
customer service teams on this so that they are able to directly respond to
customer queries such as this. This product would help with Sky+ navigation.
It is very much the start of our development in this area. We hope to be able
to share detailed product information shortly"
We hope this information is of use.
Kind regards
:: Perry Hurcombe
Central Operations, Broadcast Team Leader
