I have one, and it's, well, not terribly user friendly. While it can be programmed by computer, I haven't been able to do this, as setting that up is in a menu someplace for programming the audio jack for serial port and so on. A lot isn't accessible via the keypad, and to hear the speech, you'd better not have anything else coming through the speaker at all. If you really want one, I'll make you a good deal on this one.
