	Texas Instruments Speak & Spell
		Like the Speak and Math, the larger models both have vacuum flourescent displays, and there is a cartridge port inside the battery compartment where you can plug expansion cartridges in.
		The Speak and Spell consists of a pushbutton keyboard, microprocessor, display, ROM (contains speech data), voice synthesizer, and loudspeaker.
		The Smithsonian Institution has a web page with some information on the Speak and Spell with some photos of a white and orange preproduction unit that they say was built for the Summer Consumer Electronics Show.

	DATAMATH
		The Speak and Spell used a different approach: The spoken word was generated by the built in loudspeaker and you had to type it correct.
		This original Speak and Spell was later replaced by Version 2 which adopted the membrane keyboard used in the other Speak and Products.
		The Speak and Spell project was started in the year 1976 and created with the TMC 0280 the first one-chip LPC speech synthesizer.

	Retroland \| Speak & Spell
		Speak & Spell pulled this off through new learning modules-little cartridges inserted in the back of the machine that could add new words to the games to increase the level of learning up to an 8th grade level.
		Speak & Spells are not made today, but their popularity continues to live on.
		Having already outlived its own shelf life, there is no doubt that Speak & Spell will long occupy a place in the hearts of the grownups it once educated.

	Speak & Spell (game) - Definition, explanation
		Speak & Spell was the first of a three-part talking educational toy series that also included Speak & Read; and Speak & Math;.

		Spell is the classic word spelling game where the participant must spell ten words to the best of their ability.

	Amazon.com: Speak & Spell: Music: Depeche Mode
		Speak and Spell is really the work of Vincent Clarke, who, with Andy Bell, would later form the happy-go-lucky pop-dance megaforce Erasure.
		If you must have Speak and Spell (which is quite good, despite being very lightweight, fluffy, lyrically empty early-eighties synth-pop) do yourself a favour and spend the extra money on the import version.
		1981's "Speak and Spell" will come as a surprise to newer Depeche Mode fans who started their collection with "Violator." For one, the album is penned almost entirely by Vince Clarke, whose style is radically different from Martin Gore, who eventually became the group's main songwriter.

	Texas Instruments - 1978 Speak & Spell introduced

	Marznet's Great Moments in Computer History::Speak N Spell (Site not responding. Last check: )
		An outgrowth of Texas Instrument's basic research in synthetic speech, the product was designed to help children seven and up learn how to spell and pronounce more than 200 commonly misspelled words.
		Speak & Spell employed an entirely new concept in speech reproduction.
		A child pressed the unit's alphabetic keys to spell the word, which appeared, letter by letter, on an eight-character display screen.

	Speak & Spell
		The microprocessor in the Speak & Spell uses PMOS devices that operate at -21 V. (A typical I/O line is shown within the processor.) Because PMOS uses passive pulldown resistors, output current is limited.
		Because Speak & Spell uses CNTL 1, 2, 4, and 8 to turn on the display segments and convey data, there are always extraneous signals on the bus.
		The capabilities of the TI "Speak and Spell", and Speak Up Software give your computer not only the ability of speech, but also (in a fashion), the musical qualities of song which you can hear on the demonstration cassette.

		During spell's duration all verbal communication skills of the target are reduced by 30%.

		Production of the Speak and Spell started 1978 in Midland, Texas but in 1980 the production was moved to the Phillipines.
		But speaking computers were huge and cost thousands of dollars, and Paul’s bosses laughed at him, giving his team just three months and $25,000 to invent a speaking computer on a single chip.
		So, if you’ve got a Speak and Spell and don’t want to sell it for up to $70 to a wannabe bender, there are great beginners guides to Speak and Spell bending here and here.

		I had won the classroom spelling bee, and was the only 4th grader left in the school-wide competition.
		I guess I never realized it but I've always been a great speller...I guess it was because of the speak and spell..mines wasn't like the one in the picture though, it was smaller and didn't have the huge fl screen...
		It would do this ten times and then after the last word it would say "spell" one of the words it picked from the 10 at random and then keep doing that until you spelled all 10.

	Speak & Spell - Depeche Mode - Song Listings
		For all the claims about "dated" '80s sounds from rock purists, it should be noted that the basic guitar/bass/drums lineup of rock is almost 25 years older than the catchy keyboard lines and electronic drums making the music here.
		That such a sound would eventually become ubiquitous during the Reagan years, spawning lots of crud along the way, means the band should no more be held to blame for that than Motown and the Beatles for inspiring lots of bad stuff in the '60s.

	Depeche Mode: Speak & Spell / Music for the Masses / Violator: Pitchfork Record Review (Site not responding. Last check: )
		And it’s somewhere around that fact that we might recognize how far we are from the mainstream “alternative” audience of the late-80s, a scene we see in passing between the chatter of the documentary.
		Of course, this is not the Depeche Mode we know: The songs on this album were written by Vince Clarke, who would shortly after leave the group and find fame with Yaz and Erasure.
		What’s funny is that these three records, despite being the obvious standouts for reissue, are some of the most vexed by this whole issue of context and aging.

	Speak & Spell
		This might seem a very unlikely 'instrument' to feature here but as artists such as Kraftwerk and others have used the Speak and Spell's crude speech synthesis in their music, it (sort of) qualifies as a 'vintage instrument'.
		The idea with the Speak and Spell was that it would 'speak' words at random and the child would then be required to spell it using the 'keyboard' - if the child got it right, he/she would be told - otherwise "ERROR".
		The chip is operated at an eight kilohertz rate for the Speak and Spell.

	Transcribing and Proofreading
		The significance and meaning intended by the original author may be revealed not only by the wording and spelling of the original text, but also by the use of capitalization, italics, punctuation, accents, breaks between paragraphs (in prose) and breaks between lines (in poetry).
		Correctness means that you've respected the wording, spelling, capitalization, italics, bolding, punctuation, etc. of the original text, and recreated it accurately in your submission.
		Spell-checkers that show you possible errors and ask you to correct them can be very helpful, but you should always compare their findings to the original text you were sent, rather than relying on the words suggested by your spell-checker.
