What I really want -- and have been looking for, for literally years,
is a Thermopen that talks! If anyone ever finds one, I hope you'll
spread the word far and wide! Maybe one of us who is particularly
persuasive can persuade the company to add a speaking function? (That
would be wonderful!)

Thanks, everyone, for sharing what you have found!
