For years, I used those talking watches from Radio Shack.
I wore them all the years I was at General Motors; h however, I have not used a 
watch since I began using a smart phone about six years ago.
I first used a Windows based Black jack, with the speech program from 
CodeFactory, a company in Madrid Spain.
Now, for the past three years, I use an iPhone.
I bought on, because of comments I saw folks on this list making.
I figured if Richard & Steve thought so much of them, I should give one a try.
I did that, and have not looked back.
an Iphone is like an electronic Swiss Army kknife.
Those Radio Shack watches were great in their time; however, that time is past.
good Call Radio Shack!

Well, haven’t seen Victor put this news on this list. However, he did message 
me through Facebook. Radio Shack, who used to be the cheapest talking products 
for the blind, is no longer selling them. Both talking watches, and talking 
clocks have been eliminated from Radio shack’s inventory. They claim that a 
blind person can get this information from their cell phones. that is true, but 
only those who have the I phone or a smart phone, I should say really. I do use 
the time and alarm services from my cell phone. But, I also use my talking 
watch for time. I know I will definitely miss getting talking and inexpensive 
watches from Radio Shack.
