The BNS and BLT, (Braille 'n Speak and Braille Lite), used the Artic chip. It
was a whole lot more monotonous than the doubletalk, which is also used in the
Braille Lite Millennium. Of course, this is just my opinion, as I consider the
DoubleTalk to be my favorite synth. I know, many on this list will think
that's horrible, but I don't have a major hearing loss, just an odd sense of
taste.

I'm not 100% sure, but I'm reasonably certain that the Doubletalk was used
in those two devices. It may have been an earlier release or it may have had
some of the adjustments that we don't have access to set in such a way as to
degrade the quality of the voice.

What the Book Port has is better than nothing, & some one has already said
that the Double Talk Speech is how APH kept the price down. I have heard
worse speech in more expensive products. I can understand this one. I
couldn't stand the speech in the Braille Lite or the Braille & Speak. That's
my .02.
