Hi,

I guess you will need to call to clarify.  I did a search through the Blind
Bargains Application and it came right up.  I think they search the website
when a search is done.  Not sure.

Best Regards,

Fred

Is that so?  I just checked the ILA web site, and the only microwave oven
listed is the small Avanti unit with manual dials that sells for $79.95. 
They no longer sell any talking models.
