Thanks, this is a lot of detail! Something like that in the original message from hw would have been great; at least there are services like RAAVE to do this. A VoiceNote Apex would not surprise me (it is the only member of the usual BN lineup not yet made into an Apex). If that is what it is, I will be interested to see if they added anything to it, or made it smaller than an Apex with a braille display.
