List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: Let me see if I understand what this is all about... 1) The BNS and the BLT use the same driver. However, since the M20 does not support sound output on its speech box mode I would never get speech out of it... 2) The startup messages are too much for the Audaptor, but can be work around by holding Keypad-0 + Keypad-Enter while the computer starts... 3) Nobody addressed this problem so I am still totally in the dark on this... Please correct me if I am wrong and if you have anything to add/subtract/modify please let me know :) Cheers!! --David At 07:39 PM 9/10/2002 -0700, I wrote: >Hello everyone > >I came across some problems while using speakup and thought some of you >might be able to solve my puzzles... > >1) I have both Braille n' Speak and Braille Lite.
