Sorry to bother you, particularly with my just being lazy, but do you know of a transcript of this? I'm scratching my head over these two units and am not sure which I'm really after. I could run this through Buzz, and of course I will if you don't know of a transcript, but there's no point in reinventing the wheel.

@techsinger I would assume that Apple's Podcasts app could generate a transcript but I'm not aware of one that's already been prepared for this podcast.

@techsinger And, btw, it's no bother. I'm sorry I can't point you to a finished transcript. If you follow @BlazieTech I'll be happy to answer any questions you might have about the BT Speak. Also, Blazie Technologies' Web site has tons of demos as well as all of our documentation.
