Got this from a friend and thought some might be interested.

> Just saw this from AFB's Access World magazine ...
> Oehm Electronics offers DTV Radio
> The demise of radio tuners that can receive TV broadcasts has resulted in
> the introduction of a specialty product to address the interest in an
> audio-only HD TV receiver, the DTV Radio.
> The device is sold directly by Oehm Electronics. The shipping package
> includes a braille manual, the DTV unit, and its power cable. In addition
> to
> the braille documentation, an electronic version of the manual is e-mailed
> immediately when the order is placed.
> The DTV Radio is not based on an FM tuner; it's an HD TV without a screen.
> This is revealed by the permanently mounted remote control attached to the
> right-hand face of the DTV cabinet, the approximate dimensions of which
> are
> 14 by 12 by 3 inches.
> Because the unit is a conventional digital TV tuner, speech output isn't
> part of the interface. Instead, sequences of button presses on the control
> panel perform specific functions. To assist with this process, a braille
> diagram of the controls is included.
> If the intent of the DTV Radio is to provide a custom product to a select
> group of individuals who desire complete and accessible documentation for
> a
> television receiver that can be operated in a convenient and predictable
> manner, the DTV Radio succeeds in meeting this goal.
> The DTV Radio costs $175 plus shipping and is available from Oehm
