Hey guys,

A little bit of good news.  A friend of mine has this radio already and it
has speech.

Hi,

I have no more details than anyone else unfortunately, but at least one =
dealer I've spoken with sells for $275. At least Wouxun has relented on =
the price, as they were saying that they wouldn't allow it to be sold = for
less than $325 or something. For a true twin band radio with cross = band
repeat, I think $275 is pretty darn reasonable, but I don't know = about any
accessibility. Unfortunately, I haven't got my hands on one, = and I don't
anticipate doing so in the foreseeable future.
