oh darn! Was looking forward to some more demos, maybe a couple
songs with the USB taking center stage. Ah well.<br>

those older synths--but that's just my personal opinion.
Not surprising, really since I've been using DecTalk PCs and
Expresses since the early '90s and am very used to them.</font></span></div>

purchase<br>

<div><span class="413244617-10102011"><font size="2" face="Arial">Hi
all,</font></span></div>
<div><span class="413244617-10102011"><font size="2" face="Arial">This
email is intended primarily for list members who have
purchased a Dectalk USB. I recently decided that I want to
buy one. My first thought was access Solutions, the
manufacturer. I was told that Access Solutions accepts
credit card orders by phone, not the Internet. I initially
agreed to this. However, prior to making a purchase, I
realized giving my credit card info via phone to a company
with whom I have not done business with previously is a very
bad idea.</font></span></div>
<div><span class="413244617-10102011"></span> </div>
<div><span class="413244617-10102011"><font size="2" face="Arial">A
few questions:</font></span></div>
<div><span class="413244617-10102011"><font size="2" face="Arial">1.
What vendor did you purchase Dectalk USB from?</font></span></div>
<div><span class="413244617-10102011"><font size="2" face="Arial">2.
What is your opinion of the vendor in terms of
trustworthiness?</font></span></div>
<div><span class="413244617-10102011"><font size="2" face="Arial">3.
Were you satisfied with the product you received?</font></span></div>
<div><span class="413244617-10102011"></span> </div>
<div><span class="413244617-10102011"><font size="2" face="Arial">Feedback
from Dectalk USB purchasers regarding my questions would
be appreciated as it might help me make a Dectalk USB
purchase decision.</font></span></div>
