the colours and appearance of websites.

Talklets TEXTplayer for individuals is offered as a subscription service allowing
you to activate an easy-to-use speech control toolbar at the bottom of your web
browser screen. A FREE Lite account with 30 minutes talk time is available now.

The voices sound incredibly lifelike, and with our educative dictionary technology
the system is learning all the -time to further improve its speaking and
pronounciation

Talklets will work in most instances but we are constantly seeking to learn about
firewalls or security issues that may prevent the audio from being heard. Please
contact us if you have problems

Go to www.talklets.com to set up a trial account.. The \'Lite\' account is free.
Install the launch bar and then log in to listen to the web.

Switch the bar on and then either point to the text you want to read, or click and
drag your mouse to highlight and play a larger section of text or save it to MP3
file for later listening. There are some useful visual controls too, allowing text
highlight colour and text size to be adjusted to suit your viewing preference.

If 30 minutes isn\'t enough you can subscribe to a full Talklets account. This starts
at just 0.99p (GBP) per month for unlimited talk time and can be used for reading
and saving on practically every website you visit. Talk time can be topped up easily
if you ever run out and higher useage accounts are available to save having to top
up.
