  Anthony,

  Yes to both questions.  However, you'll need a list of the menu items 
  because the VGS-1 tells you the numbers, but not the names.  It does, 
  however, speak numeric values, and words like "off" and "on."  In some 
  cases, it spells words like "a l l" and "c u r r e n t."  It also reads the 
  names of the PF keys instead of giving them numeric values like it does in 
  the 480.

  Steve
