Tandy,
     No, the only experience I have had with the Audapter is via demo
tapes, as I missed it at the convention this year.  I do like all I've
heard about it though, and in particular I think Noel Runyan is a good
guy, so the support ought to be something like GWMicros, without the
ability to grab him here, that is!  Actually, he has logged on here as a
user in the past, and we have spoken since then, as Noel is aware of us,
but I don't think the BBS bug has bitten him yet.
     You know, the new portable Dec sounds like it will be a great
addition to the synthesizer market as well!  This I did see at the
convention, and although at the time I hear it had a few qwirks, I am
assuming these have been resolved in the meantime.  Unlike the full size
DecTalk with a top speed of 350 words, as I learned from Breda, the
portable is capable of 550!  If the response time is likewise better,
and the original price I heard of $1500 is still intact, it most
definately is something worth looking at!  If nothing else, it ought to
have an affect on the price of the other few external synthesizers, and
this could do nothing but help us all!
                                        Willie
     

... BlinkTalk, Dr. Deb and Silver in Pittsburgh!
