- billjackson, on 10/12/2007, -11/+5no thanks. there's enough of that around here.
Great link! - sockpuppets, on 10/12/2007, -2/+25Ooh, I'm going to make Stephen Hawking crank calls with this.
- Sblader5, on 10/12/2007, -2/+15mom something is WRONG, W-R-O-N-G
- Recuso, on 10/12/2007, -0/+350,000 First try.
- insinuate, on 10/12/2007, -2/+9What they should have called this was Speak like the Devil.
- rewen, on 10/12/2007, -7/+2haha! someone link the Dane Cook routine he did about the speak 'n spell!
- docdoak, on 10/12/2007, -0/+8WOW! The short "music" that plays when you turn it on and off are memories that were way in the back of my head waiting to be brought to the forefront again!
- mv10, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Maybe Im too Young, but how do you use this thing
It just keeps saying Err No
- billjackson, on 10/12/2007, -11/+5no thanks. there's enough of that around here.
- nickb34, on 10/12/2007, -22/+14Who else thought of Dane Cook the first time they saw this?
- fcukthisgame, on 10/12/2007, -13/+8apparently negative two of us.
I really did think it was a dane-cook-tized speak-n-spell
I saw it on the front page...first thing to hit my mind "A-B-C-D-E-F-G...I will kill your family"....haha
and i apologize in advance for repeating such a terrible dane cook joke.
if it was Slip-n-Slide online, we'd be better off.
Slip-and-bleed-from-the-aaaaaaaanus FTW. - Lyph4, on 10/12/2007, -16/+6The morons who think he's funny?
- DrGamez, on 10/12/2007, -13/+6I don't listen to crappy stand-up.
- strabes, on 10/12/2007, -7/+9Judging from his popularity he obviously isn't that crappy.
- broomett, on 10/12/2007, -11/+2strabe...No...he is.
1. A lot of people saw Epic Movie too.
2. This isn't 2005. His popularity has plummetted in the last 18 months or so, especially after it was proven that he steals his joked from Louis C.K. - Chongo, on 10/12/2007, -5/+1Actually I thought of pain from a lumbar puncture I just got from the hospital a couple of days ago.... so yes I thought of dane cook.
- dggeek, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1MTV is also popular...
so is American Idol. - sam10685, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2who the hell can look at this now and not think of Dane Cook?
- fcukthisgame, on 10/12/2007, -13/+8apparently negative two of us.
- electronicmaji, on 10/12/2007, -11/+11. Input "Penis in Vagina"
2. Play for your Mother
3. ? ? ?
4. Profit!- sockpuppets, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6I only play that for your mother. She does pay well, though.
- iBookG4, on 10/12/2007, -2/+14Mom, something's wrong. W-R-O-N-G wrong.
- matyrice, on 10/12/2007, -1/+9"That thing would wake me up in the middle of the night. 'Play with me....I wanna spell, RIGHT NOW!'"
- neoian, on 10/12/2007, -0/+8I want it to say words that i type in! Oh well...
- Dumbledore, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5That's what good old Microsoft Sam is for. . .
- RyTakahashi, on 10/12/2007, -5/+0I love the Speak and Spell's cameo in War Games.
Would you like to play a game?- mc7winkie, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Umm thats not really a through back speak and spell. And if you must know the only way to win at speak and spell is not to play at all
- cbergeron, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1Actually, it's "Shall we play a game"... ;)
- EvilDr.X, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6Man, something's wrong with it. It tells me to spell anything, but no matter what I spell, it says it's wrong.
- SilverhammerMBA, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0LMAO. The first one I got was angel. For the life of me I couldn't remember if it was le or el... and then I got it wrong :'(
- cbergeron, on 10/12/2007, -2/+1Use your keyboard to spell the words for some great antics.
- djepik, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3lol I got stuck on anything for awhile too... I tried hitting the any key too, didn't work
- randovaro, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Nice, but we'll still need to keep a few hardware versions around. You know, just in case another plucky little alien botanist gets stranded here on Earth and needs a Speak-N-Spell to communicate with its mother ship. Like what happened in 1982. If you haven't heard about it, it's because the Government covered the whole thing up.
- bshep, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Did they use walkie talkies or guns to cover it up?
- nogChoco, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Be vigilant and keep that rusty BMX bike on standby, just in case...
- KiloCharley, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1What? are you sure that's not the v.p.?
- broomett, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3Pretty lame really. It asked me to spell anything 3 times in a row and at least 5 times out of 10 words. Out of those 10 times, I may have gotten 4 words to spell. And why not duplicate some of hte other aspects o hte machine, like hangman?
- fcukthisgame, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0The satanic voice behind the speak-n-spell doesn't have the same rhythm when he spells as fergie or gwen stefani. I'm disappointed.
- endgame, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2The first thing I thought when I saw Speak N Spell was the first Depeche Mode album was available online for FREE......I just cant get enough....LOL
- XZanatos, on 10/12/2007, -2/+2"Speak-N-Spell Online" ??
How about "Speak-AND-Spell"? So far I allready have reservations about this program.- WanderLink, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Actually it never says "Speak-n-Spell" on the box or the toy. It's says "Speak & Spell".
- boozedrinker, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1WOW. This made me realize how stupid I am.....I couldn't help but spell out L-I-M-P B-I-Z-K-I-T.
- IzeasGT, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1NOW SPELL, "COME BACK ALI. COME BACK ALI'S SISTER."
- WanderLink, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I had one of those when I was a kid, I loved that thing, i wish I still had it. I also had the blue Speak & Maths one. This flash one isn't fully functional though, some keys don't work. The real thing had a function that let you spell whatever you want and he would repeat it, rather than only asking you to spell something like this thing.
- thexder, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0But where are the numbers?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bQQE4EC7LUI - noshuke, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1direct link.
http://homepage.mac.com/jakesmith/speaknspell/speaknspell.html - AncientWeird, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4Pretty nifty, but when you spell a word wrong they should have it say "That is Incorrect. The correct spelling for *blank* is ..." like the real Speak-N-Spell does.
- jake74, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I would have loved to make it exact. I had a Speak N Spell off ebay, but it never worked, so I had to guess how the thing actually worked.
- BananaGrabber, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Am I the only person having so much trouble finding where each letter is even though they're in order? I'm way too used to my keyboard layout.
- hansdg1, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1umm just type on your keyboard...
- Chairmonkey, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2I had Speak N' Math.
Number crunchers level 1! - solidsmoke, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2I remember my speak and spell! It was evil and asked me how to spell words like "Bureau" while I was about 4 years old. Good times.
- mara00jade, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3It's close... but not quite like the original =/
I had this idea a while back, but only got as far as scanning the front! (it still works though)

and recorded some sounds

the days of .wavs and *P ! - inarguable, on 10/12/2007, -2/+0@sockpuppet "Well it was a pirated vbulletin and you're using the digg logo and trademark in your URL."
God i love these people who are so high and mighty when it suits them to be...try deleting all your MP3s and pirated movies you STOLE before
whining like a bitch about logo and trademark infringement, you pathetic little hypocrite. - kreate, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0here is a direct link to download the .swf file. i used deepvaccuum for os x.
http://homepage.mac.com/jakesmith/speaknspell/speaknspell.swf - dralezero, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2I had a Computron instead. It looked like a computer and had expandable game slots.
http://www.vidgame.net/misc/computron.htm
So badass.- inarguable, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Dude, that Computron is badass! You still got that bad boy kicking around?
- chrismusaf, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1YES! Computron was awesome. "Flollow me!" Horrible voice synthesis.
- z.unit, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Holy ***** i had that thing! could never remember the name!
- dralezero, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1whoops..
- jake74, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1heh, look at that, my old site keeps coming round!
I'm the creator of the Speak N Spell site, thanks for your comments and I'm glad people are still enjoying it. I'm sorry I never finished it off, and I also have a Speak N Maths that never got programmed, I just drew up the artwork for it.
cheers
jake - briannj, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1I am pretty sure the real Speak N Spell says "That is Correct" and not just correct :-(
- Bobbis2000, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1I'm pretty sure it keeps asking me to spell "Whore-y"
I feel kind of dirty now. - djsunkid, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I'm surprised nobody has mentioned that there has been a speak and spell online for ages already- complete with switches for circuit bending:
http://www.roilnoise.com/images/Speak%20&%20Roil%20v2.swf - jmp478, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1That thing would give me nightmares if mine did that
- MakutaBloodlust, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0hehe...anyone remember that simpsons episode?
"Hih-Oh-Mih-Eh-Er"
