[Blindmath] Blindmath Digest, Vol 32, Issue 1

Mon Mar 9 18:43:24 UTC 2009

Melanie, 

I'm pasting here information about a talking business calculater. This is from the blindscience.org site. I had contemplated buying it, but eventually didn't need to. 
I don't think that it would be necessary for you eather.

Talking Business Calculator
This is a fully functional business calculator with speech output. Each key is announced when pressed. The visual display calculations and results can be spoken with a press of a button. In addition to the usual arithmetical functions, this calculator offers items such as: repetitive addition/ subtraction, chain multiplication/division, constant multiplication/division, and much more. 
Organization: Electronic Technical Services, Inc. (ETS)
Cost: $358.66
