Yeah, I've used them from Bank of America and Washington Mutual.
The reason for my question wasn't to locate one for myself (my local
branch
of Washington Mutual has a talking ATM -- as do all of the branches I've
seen lately!) but for the students in my online Web accessibility class.
As part of the less on understanding assistive technologies, I've
suggested
that they could check out an accessible ATM for themselves. Most
sighted
users, even if they're aware of the existence of talking ATMs, will
never
even try to use one.
Thanks for the pointers, Kelly!
