• Gee! that's pricey okay, I bought a universal remote controller with a talking interface for $30.00, I guess the fact that it plugs into the dock of my iPhone thus using it as the voice <smile> makes it a lot cheaper. Yes, equipment for the disabled is always very expensive over here. For instance, the little XLI-3 receiver shoe that allows the use of an FM system such as the ZoomLink Plus costs £430 on its own. That's just for the little receiver, about a quarter of an inch square. We got a grant to buy Gordon the Zoome Link and one receiver. He really needs another receiver because the one our audiologist managed to get for him doesn't work. No idea why because it's compatible. It's a slightly different type, but it should work just the same. We'll have to take it back in and see if he can do anything with it. But anyway yes, you're correct, we pay through the nose over here.
