 HK> Anybody out there ever seen a talking scientific calculator?  I
 HK> am looking for a handheld calculator that will do more than
 HK> add, subtract, multiply and divide.

Henry,
    I just happen to know someone with a talking scientific calculator,
but although portable, it is not hand-held by today's standards.
    It is basically an HP scientific calculator that sits on top of a
DigiVoice unit, and it was purchased from Science Products in
Philadelphia for about $600 in 1983.

     Although I am sure there are more affordable and better options
available to you now, if you're interested, I'll act as your negotiator
and see what she will settle for.  Where you want me to start the
bidding?
                                                        Willie

Hello Henry,
   You might want to give Blazie Engineering a call. They have a
scientific calculator for $559. Don't know if this was the price range
you were looking for. If interested, the phone number is (301)879-
4944. Hope this helps...Good luck
                                          Susan
