Hi Tom and all

I have heard bits about this device for a while but have no clue about its
physical presentation.
I realize that this is a basic question, but can someone describe it?
Also, its basic software or o/s?

According to the raspberryvi.org site orca is not yet up on the pi.
It is for accessing desktops like gnome whereas speakup works at the
console/command line level of linux.
