Hi,
You may find that speech works better with WinBMD although that hasn't been
tried as yet. As a Windows program you don't need to switch back and forth
from DOS which is what causes the delays when using SpeedBMD. I would be
interested in someone trying this so if you'd like to give it a go then drop
me an email at .
