Hi Gaylen, I sure don't know why none of these devices come with a headphone jack, for plugging into speakers, but if you plug in an HDMI to VGA adapter, the adapter should have a little speaker

Glen, can you plug a headset into the Roku instead of a speaker? Gaylen Kapperman

I wish they would use eSpeak, maybe my request sunk in if they are using it. Glenn

Oh, they aren't using E-Speak? I wonder what they are using then because I was always under the impression that that was what they were using. Gene...

what is this Roku

bingo!
