Two (2) VOICE POWER boards for the UNIX PC 3B1/7300 computer
These boards will give your UNIX PC a new face lift! I have one in my
machine (for which I've had many hours of enjoyment), and I'm selling two
others to any interested party on the net. These boards both have the latest
release of the firmware, Release 2.1 EPROMS. Both work perfectly, I
personally tested them in my machine. [Nothing like having three VOICE POWER
boards in your machine at once :-)]
What can this board do for you? Well the possibilities are endless, but
basically the board does sound digitization, speech synthesis, and telephone
operations. The amazing thing about the board is that it can record sound
(a voice, lets say) and save it as a UNIX file. Then you can take that
digitized voice and play it back. You can also use any other UNIX command
to manipulate that file. (eg. uucp the file to a friend so he can listen
to it too, cp the file to a floppy for posterity, etc.) There is also a voice
editor, that will allow you to insert and delete parts of that sound.
The board has two RJ11 jacks (one for line, and one for set) and two mini
jacks for audio in and audio out. You can plug your CD player, for example,
and record your favorite music selection as digitized sound (I've done this,
it's loads of fun ...)
For more practical people, they can use it for an answering machine, call
routing, and voice mail. Trust me once you have the board you'll be
thinking of all kinds of weird uses you can use the board for. There is
also software that allows for text-to-speech conversion (ie. you type
in a word, and the Voice Power board synthesizes the word and speaks it!)
The board has some other nice features, like you can have it answer the
phone, play a "canned" message like those ...
"Welcome to the AT&T National System Support Hotline, if you
are on a touch tone phone and you are calling about an
existing ticket, press [1] ... "
The board can decode which touch tone was pressed and you can pick an
action (in your software) on how you want to handle it.
Both boards come with the following System Software:
Voice Power: Diagnostics REL 2.0 (one disk)
Voice Power: System Software REL 2.1 (two disks)
Voice Power: VDA REL 1.1 (one disk)
I'll even throw in some other Voice Power Software packages ...
Voice Power: Answering Machine REL 2.0 (two disks)
(Software package will make your UNIX pc an answering machine)
Voice Power: Electronic Mail REL 1.0 (one disk)
(Software package will allow you to send voice mail to others
with a Voice Power board, and also allows you to listen
to your Answering Machine Messages)
Voice Power: Voice Design Tool (one disk)
(Software package will allow you to write simplistic Voice
Power applications using a "4th-generation type" menuing
system. VDT then will create "C" code for you to compile
and modify)
Voice Power: Developer's Package (one disk)
(This disk provides the necessary include files, archive
libraries, and utility programs to write your own Voice Power
applications).
Now for the "bottom line" ... what's this all going to cost me? (you must
be saying by now) ...
For anyone wanting to buy *BOTH* Voice Power boards
together, they can have the package for: $1000.00 COD
I'll also break up the pair for anyone wanting just
one for: $550/each COD
If you are interested, since you don't have a voice power board now you
can't send me voice mail, but you can send me electronic mail! For faster
response give me a telephone call ... I'm going to be away until Wednesday,
so wait for telephone calls until then. If you E-mail me, make sure you
include your telephone number so I can return the call!
