I know there was some talk of the various different versions of the actual Covox Speech Thing in the CVX4 thread. And our own MobyGamer/OldSkool was kind enough to post some really good pictures and even a YT video about his two versions.

I recently came across a Covox Speech Thing, in a full shiny chrome case with the short beige audio cable bundled with a 5-pin DIN keyboard power cable for the external speaker module. I think this must be one of the earlier examples of this device because the label says "patent pending" while the others I have seen have the patent number listed. Also the keyboard powered speaker method is different.

Has anyone determined the history or timeline of these units?
