Most of us who grew up in the Eighties will remember that the Speak & Spell was instrumental in E.T. the Extra-terrestrial’s plan to phone home. But before it made its big-screen debut in 1982, Texas Instrument’s Speak & Spell made its public debut in June of 1978 at the Consumer Electronics Show in Chicago.
I remember the old Speak N Spell (not sure about the new one): When I entered "g-o-d" in the thing, it would say "ha ha, you're funny" or something like that.
This was in the mode where one could put in a short word and the machine would say back what that word was.
