I now have web radio on my plextalk, but nothing from the BBC. What I am after is Radio2, 3, 4, 4-extra, 5-live and world service. Any hints and finding a simple way of loading these would be appreciated. Cheers Jeff

Hi Everyone Following my previous message about reading text one line at a time, I have found a solution. The easiest way to do this is to use the Edit Mode. Pele West

Hi Perhaps this is something they could add in a future up-grade.

Essentially for all the navigation jumps, the default setting is for the Plextalk to continue reading after making the appropriate jump. The only way to get near to what I think you want is to make the jump and press Stop as soon as you hear the next item. This will always be a hit or miss method and you may well miss items or have more than one spoken at a time. Maybe I've missed something but I'm pretty sure this is the case.

Is there a way to make it read text a line at a time? I can set it to start at the beginning of a line but it carries on reading. I am trying to use the Plextalk to check a list which has a new item on each line. I can read word by word, but that is a bit laborious.

Plextalk PTX1
by The Smiths 01 Mar '13

01 Mar '13

Hi I am thinking of purchasing my own Plextalk PTX1. I have a choice of buying either a device running version 3.04NZL or version 3.07aue. I wish to update the device to the current version 5.01 UK English. 5.01UK English is the only English version offered on the Plextalk website. Has anyone on the list purchased a Plextalk PTX1 running either of these versions (one offered in New Zealand and one offered in Australia) and has successfully updated to the standard 5.01UK English? Obviously it is a different English version and I am wondering if it is possible to update on top of an existing different English variation? Kind Regards Janine Smith
