I'm interested in the capabilities of the VOICE POWER boards. Firstly, where can one get it fairly inexpensive. I hate spending loads of money for a machine that is no longer an AT&T product. I've called places they quote as high as $1300 and as low as $800. Is anyone selling one used? Or the possibility of trading for an used DOS-73 board? Who knows? What can it do? Does it come with the software so you can program it yourself? What kind of programming libraries does it come with and what is it's limitations? How hard would it be writing your own software and not spend the money on the voice-mail, answering machine, etc.. software. Is anyone actually using these things? Let me know. I would like to hear from you! -Lenny -- US MAIL : Lenny Tropiano, ICUS Software Systems IIIII CCC U U SSS PO Box 1 I C U U S Islip Terrace, New York 11752 I C U U SS PHONE : (516) 968-8576 [H] (516) 582-5525 [W] I C U U S TELEX : 154232428 [ICUS] IIIII CCC UUU SSS AT&T MAIL: ...attmail!icus!lenny UUCP : ...{talcott, boulder, pacbell, sbcs, mtune, bc-cis}!icus!lenny

Lenny, Are the VOICE POWER boards just a voice synthesizer, or something that has an ADC for one to do speech recognition? If you want a voice synthesizer, I have some used Votrax Type 'N Talks that could be connected to a serial port for speech synthesis (sounds good *IF* you use the phoneme codes directly); E-mail me if interested.

The VOICE POWER boards don't do speech recognition, at least as far as I know. It does do audio digitization, therefore using an analog-to-digital converter plus a variety of support chips. Gil Kloepfer (gil@limbic) and I are tinkering with our own ideas of a "homemade-VOICE-POWER" board. -Lenny -- Paper-net: Lenny Tropiano | @-net: lenny@icus.UUCP ICUS Software Systems | !-net: ...att \ PO Box 1 | boulder \ Islip Terrace, NY 11752 | talcott !icus!lenny Vocal-net: (516) 582-5525 [work] | pacbell / (516) 968-8576 [home] | sbcs / Telex-net: 154232428 ICUS | Another-net: attmail!icus!lenny
