Bob, It sounds a lot more advanced than my DS50, but you could set time and date on that, even though there was no speech for these settings. It was a case of counting beeps for hours minutes etc, a double beep when they hit zero. A bit fiddly, but once done, you don't need to worry about it again.

Subject: setting time on Olympus dm-520 and other findings Some findings about the Olympus dm-520: A great discovery for me is that we can set the time on the dm-520 using the included Olympus Sonority software. Very nice since the unit doesn't talk when setting the clock: synchronize date/time from the device menu. Can also be done automatically each time the unit is connected from the tools, options, device tab. Speaking of options, this dialog is a bit hard to use with Jaws. It is necessary to use the Jaws cursor because the tab key only takes one to the first control on each tab page. They aren't actually tabs but the pages are selected from a tree instead. A strange thing about the file listings in the recorder folder is each one has the number 7 in front of the name so I hear 7 graphic 228 filename each time I arrow up and down. I wonder what that "7" is. I also wonder what the graphic stands for. I'm just learning to use the Sonority software. I'm glad I registered the unit as I got 10% off purchase of accessories. So I went for the wireless remote control. I didn't go for the extra batteries as I have my own rechargeables. Speaking of registering: The Sonority software serial number is on a peace of paper that has a strip of tape along one end. I was able to scan that. But, I did have to get sighted help to read the hardware serial number. Oops! I pressed new from the file menu. That brought up the "found new hardware wizard". I cancelled that as the drivers were already installed. But, I just heard "system settings changed". What now? Better save this and see what happened. I think I refreshed the device so Windows reinstalled the drivers. Oh well. Didn't loose any files.
