Hi John,

Palstar has a new radio coming out that has a touch screen, however, I was 
told by the owner of Palstar at Dayton when I looked at the prototype that 
the screen will talk.  The one on display did not talk yet.  Paul said the 
buttons will talk as you move your finger over the screen and you lift your 
finger to tap to activate the button.  We will have to wait to see if it is 
for real.
