[DECtalk] dectalk usb

[GUI Access]

The DECtalk USB uses an ARM processor running at 100 MHz.  I don't 
know any further specifics on the type of CPU.

Here is an audio sample of the DECtalk USB.  The DECtalk USB claims 
to be running v5.0 of the DECtalk software.  I have a software demo 
of v4.63 of DECtalk which sounds exactly like this audio sample so I 
don't know how v5.0 and v4.63 differ:

Here is the DECtalk USB user manual:
