<DIV><FONT size=2>Hmm, well I now have the 4.40 speak Window, oh and if anyone
ever needs it, I will post a tutorial about how to use it well with NVDA, the
buttons I mean. I don't know how to get it to actually read the text in the edit
box of the window though. Perhaps someone could, or already has, worked on
that?</FONT></DIV>

<DIV>I use Dectalk 4.40 Speak Window. Because I do CDs and concerts, I
really don't want to switch because I can make it sound really human. On
July 30th I might be singing with Peter Yarrow again, and it would be too
weird to be using 2 different versions of Dectalk. And live on stage I
need to be very fast, if I switch versions, how do I know a command won't
create feedback.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>And let me make another point. If you look on youtube, you will
find that I'm not the only disabled entertainer. None of us would be
able to do what we do without the fancy features of Dectalk. I would
rather use Dectalk 4.40 because it is the closest I can get to Dennis
Klatt. I never met him, but his work gave my life meaning. I have
to believe that he would never want the singing feature removed from
Dectalk. I had too many kids light up when they learned that they can
sing with Dectalk. It's a gift from Dennis and I love to pass it
on.</DIV>

<DIV>So I'm wondering, do you use the older speak window of 4.3 or whatever
it is? Yeah I think its 4.3 which is the popular ones, but now that this new
one has come out, will you start using this one, or still use the more
popular one?<BR><BR>Sent from my iPod</DIV>

<DIV>Hi, I don't think I ever mentioned this on the listserv because I
didn't know I could. As some of you know, I have a website, and for
the longest time almost everything was free with hopes for
donations. Well, people were getting free files but never
donating. So sadly I made some changes. I only say sadly
because kids who can't talk can only sing by using Dectalk, so I badly
wanted kids to have free access to any song they wanted so they could sing
just like any other child. It got totally abused, so I made some
changes. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I have one announcement that I'm still pinching myself over because I
can't believe I'm being allowed to do this without a fight. When
Blake and I were working for Enable Rehab, we were given a beta Dectalk
SAPI that could sing. Well, I decided to release it for free because
I was tired of Corine publicly saying she didn't have the source code to
make it sing. Internally, she alone decided to remove the singing
feature and tell that lie. Corine got wind that I was releasing the
beta Dectalk SAPI, and she relayed a message to me saying she didn't care
and wished me well. It slightly takes the fun out of releasing it,
but ok.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I'm not charging for the SAPI because the singing part is unstable,
plus I want it free anyway. So, you get the SAPI, the Speak Window,
a new blind friendly Speak Window, dictionary tools, instructions that
Blake Roberts wrote, and help support. So, you can get the beta from
me for free with instructions and support, or you can pay $24.95 to Enable
Rehab and get no instructions or support. And remember, if you buy
"DECTALK READER 1" from Enable Rehab, you don't get what you pay for, you
get Dectalk 4.61. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Anyway, my songs are all $1.50. I've been sick for a month so I
haven't been doing new songs for a while. I'm still recovering, but
by mid August I'm hoping to be doing songs again. I plan on doing
top 40 songs.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>So I hope you all check out my store and share it with others.</DIV>
