Al,
  I am at the NFB convention in Pennsylvania so I don't have access
to RC Systems phone number.  However, I see that Daveed has already given
you the number anyway.

About one month ago I talked with Randy to find out what it would take
to get Vocal-Eyes to work with the DoubleTalk.  Randy was more than willing
to work with me.  In fact he sent me a DoubleTalk for the PC.  I am told
there are only about 10 in the field.  He has not actualy released the
product yet.  I received the DoubleTalk and started working with it.
Actually, Vocal-Eyes is already compatible with it if you use the generic
driver and setup the commands as per his documentation.  However, I would
like to support the board even farther.  I will be creating a device
driver specifically for it.  I have given Randy a few ideas of what would
make the DoubleTalk better for the blind community.  He sounded like
he would be willing to work with me on this.

Regards,
  Doug
