Got this after work today at vendors mall for $1. Works perfect as you can see. Reminds me of ET. I have a few of these old machines. Always fascinated me.

  • I had this same one,the battery corroded in it and my grandfather was suppose to fix it but never did. It hung in his basement for 14 years!

  • They are pretty awesome to be so old. I have this yellow one lets you type in words and it pronounces them. Curse words don't work though, lol.

  • They didnt scare me when I was little which is shocking because now I would not let my kids have this unless they say the voice doesn't scare them. I learned to read, spell and do math by these devices so they are still beneficial to this day, just demonic sounding. Imagine, a machine telling you to "SAY IT!"

  • You know, they never scaced me either but they do sound a little devilish. I just always loved tech stuff though and never thought of it as being anything to fear. I wish they would make a new version because with todays tech they could put all kinds of learning stuff in one and I know it would sell well. Hey, why don't we invent a new one.

  • Cool I Remember Speak And Spell... Where do you live? I dont thik there are any around here where i live...but if there is i would have to guess the quanity is very very small... very hard to find items

  • Hello. I'm in Kentucky.

see all

  • Sounds like George St. Pierre. 

  • A,B,C,D,E,F,G...

    I WILL KILL YOUR FAMILY.

  • @MrToystory2000 You have to have the yellow spell and say I think it's called version which came out a little later than the speak and spell.

  • Or maybe you could settle for a brunette with blue eyes that aren't slanted? :)

    I'm available.

  • There may have been a Japanese version at one point, look it up on Wikipedia. I understand there were German, French and Italian versions, as well as a Spanish and a UK English version.

  • I'm pretty sure you're referring to Speak And Read. My best friend has one, and I haven't played with it in fucking years, I've looked for videos of them on YouTube, but can only find videos of Speak and Read units that have been Circuit Bent, I hate Circuit Bending with a passion, I'd like to find videos of un-modified Speak and Math and Speak and Read units.

  • Your S&S appears to have been sold from 1980-85 due to the keys being membrane type rather than buttons.

    The 1985-89 versions had a smaller TI logo.
