Hi:
I got this link to a podcast about a new talking HDC radio the other day. Maybe
some people here will enjoy this.
The original email is attached.
All the best,
Chris

Chris,
Here is a link for a demonstration of a portable HD radio that talks.
The problem is, it doesn't talk enough, and some of its speech is
rather useless and un-necessary.
The company is Sparc, spelled with a C rather than a K. Other than what
is said in the podcast, I am not familiar with them.
This is not the unit that never materialized nearly 2 years ago.
Despite its limited talking ability, it is the first HD portable I have
encountered that includes a speaker, and uses normal batteries, rather
than having to be re-charged from a usb cable or charger.
The guy doesn't say how long the batteries will last.
You may need to copy the link into a text editor in order to get it all
onto one line.
