<DIV>I didn't know they changed it to an hour, cool! My friend works for
Enable, so I hear about some of the problems. I'm glad people now have an
hour to download stuff.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>So is the dictionary tools for the SAPI or the speak window? </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I still think it's stupid that you have to buy the SAPI to get the other 2
items. I'm mainly only getting it because if Enable Rehab goes under I
want to fix some pronunciations and keep it available. So I gotta get it
and then sit on it for like 6 months after Enable goes under. I plan to
bundle a bunch of stuff together in my release. That's all down the road,
but those are my plans. Maybe 2014 or so.</DIV>

<DIV>I have a question and Blake is already looking into it for me but I
feel like posting my question anyway because it's driving me crazy.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>First off, I badly want to buy the Dectalk SAPI from Enable Rehab, but
I don't want the SAPI, I actually want the Speak Window and the dictionary
tools. Those two items I thought were usually free, but they are being
included as a bonus. (Some bonus)</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>So ok, I'm scared to buy from the Enable site because it only gives you
one shot at downloading the 2 zip files. I don't have a stable
internet, and I have heard that if you don't get the download, one other
person actually had to wait for a refund, purchase it again, and then
download. I DO NOT WANT THAT HEADACHE! And, why would I pay for
the SAPI when all I really want are the 2 items that should be free
anyway?</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>So the other day I did a google search for a Dectalk SAPI expecting to
get nothing. I was in shock because Dectalk 4.61 SAPI is now
everywhere! And funny thing, Dectalk Reader 1 I heard unzips as
Dectalk 4.61, so why would I or anyone buy from Enable Rehab when their SAPI
only does English? If you buy the Dectalk SAPI from other places, it
has other languages, plus it runs on Linux and other operating
systems.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Here's my question. I'm finding the Dectalk SAPI all over, and
like I said, a google search goes crazy. BUT, every download link for
the SAPI sends me to an audio converter, or other stuff that is not Dectalk
related. I see nothing on any site to buy, but yet the Dectalk SAPI
seems to be available. Text Aloud, different screen readers, and I
mean I'm finding it everywhere. I emailed Blake 2 of the sites, but I
found like 20. I just can't figure out how to download or buy
it. And yeah, I'll mess around with the SAPI, but I really want the
dictionary tools and the speak window. And knowing that some people
have download issues at the Enable Rehab site, I'm scared to try it. I
heard you don't even get a confirmation number. Yeah, your order is
recorded by the site, but who wants to wait for a refund if you need a 2nd
try? I sure don't!</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>So is there a better site that I can get the SAPI and stuff from?
I'll even directly pay someone to e-mail me a copy. Heck, the Enable
site even has a one shot warning, so I totally don't trust it.</DIV>

</PRE></BLOCKQUOTE> To answer your first question, you could just
install the file called dectalk main, which installs the speak windows and
dlls. And these are in other languages (I can prove this) and it let's
you download the software for the next hour or so. So what would happen
is, if you buy the software, after you're order is complete, you would hit the
button that says back to enable rehab. Then you will see a link to both
those packages. I've bought it myself, and it worked out fine. And
Dectalk sapi in google seems to be everywhere, but that is the only dectalk
sapi available. This happens because the search results show a product
that was never made available. And again, the speak windows are in other
languages too. If you need any assistance buying, I believe I could walk
you through the steps.
