 WK> Donald,

 WK>  He would like to have one that will echo back each letter as 
 WK>  it is struck via speech. Have you ever heard of such an 
 WK>  animal?  At this point, he does not want to get into full 
 WK>  fledged programs and special devices, just something simple.
     
 WK> Warren King
Hi Warren; Any computer with speech can echo back what a person types. I think
that the best way to each typeing is to give no feedback since it is the same as
lookng at the keyboard when you type and we all know what a bad habit that is.
