I tried to reply to this but for some reason my reply was rejected by
the moderator.
The moderator gave the following reason for rejecting your request:
"[No reason given]"
Anyway, I hoped to suggest that maybe Joe Grand could be convinced to
produce his EMIC2 speech synthesizer module again as it is a fully
DECTALK compatible module with serial interface. If you need USB,
you'd just frontend it with a USB to serial adapter,

They used to be sold by SparkFun but they stopped producing them in 2023.
