Lynette,
I never saw those old Keynotes but I have a friend who had one in the
1980s and she really loved it. I remember that she told me the keyboard
had a wonderful feel. On one of the earlier newsletters from Raised Dot
Computing a customer submitted a review of the Keynote and gave it high
My first computer was a Keynote, which was all of 40k. Evidently there
were some Epson (I think) laptops which never took off, so Humanware
acquired them and fitted them with speech and their own software. You
could write with it (approximately 14 pages) and there was a little
microprinter o

I agree; that was a fascinating BBC program.
In 1987 or 1988, a special issue of the Journal of the Acoustical Society of
America had the article about the history of speech synthesis, written by
Dennis Klatt. This magazine, as was sometimes done back then, contained an

Hi Sue,
I have one of those gadgets, but my question is this: why don't you simply

Hi,
My first introduction into the World of screen readers and computers was
with an Apple 2E and Braille Edit back in 1984. The speech syn was an
Echo from Streets Electronics. By today's standards, it was primitive
but was a vast improvement on what went before. i.e. Just a typewriter

I remember Doug's tapes but can't quite hear that voice clearly enough
to identify it. It would be quite cool if someone could digitize them,
if any exist but Doug may or may not have concerns about that. It is

Steve,
Thank you for this fascinating bit of info. Is the Fred voice from Apple
derived from Klat-talk, as it sure does sound remarkably like one of the
Dec-talk voices. I guess I now know why the primary voice was called Dennis.
