Mike, yes there is speech feedback in the time and date setting. It's just not as obvious as the other feedback. When you're in the time and date section you will hear a prompt telling you how to set the clock, by using the up, down, left and right buttons. Use the left and right buttons to navigate between columns, year, month, date, hour and minutes, and the up and down buttons to get to the desired date. Each time you arrow up or down the current setting will be spoken.

It's a great little unit but...I'm trying to set the date and time, and at no time does it speak anything, either month, day, hour, minute or anything. I know the clock is wrong because when I record anything it is given a date and time which is completely wrong. Either I am doing something completely wrong, or Olympus are the stupidest bunch of people on the planet. Why would they produce a device like this with voice-guidance throughout except when setting date and time? Any help would be appreciated. I would love to be proven wrong and told I am being a wally. But unless I can set the time and date without sighted assistance it is going back. Mike -- Michael A.
