In this podcast, the Tech Doctors thoroughly examine the BTSpeak from Blazie Technologies.

They tell you where it comes from, what it is and why they love it.

The BTSpeak was created by Deane Blazie who developed the legendary Braille ‘n Speak in the 1980s.

Deane along with his sons, some other developers and a dedicated group of testers and users have produced a device that operates with the simplicity of the Braille ‘n Speak while adding all of the power and features that are found in state-of-the-art computers of today.

The BTSpeak does all this and it fits easily in a pocket.

After you have listened to the Tech Doctors explain it all, you can get more information by going to the
