• I'm really quite sure I hear "reball reball reball". I guess with a distorted sound like that it's up to your brain to fill in the gaps.

  Obviously a tribute to Red Dwarf.

• I got rip-off..  And I have already bought one
  
  By using burst it's easy to slow down the repetition.

• The selection dot looks a bit like an afterthought.
  
  Dude, where can I see where I am adjusting and what I am selecting?
  Ups.
  What ups?
  Ups!
  Don't tell me you have to redo the GUI?
  No, no. I get right to it.
  <clicketyclick><click><clicketyclickclick>
  Tadaaa, here are your selection dots!
  Dots?
  Dots! No need to redo the GUI, I just draw some dot in the existing space.
  Well...?
  Hey, no need to redo the GUI!
  Ok, lets ship it.

• Dave,
  could you try a keyboard or mouse on the USB ports and see if that works better with the menu selection.

  I searched the waveform generator menu in my Agilent x3000 and found a similar voice command.

  Agilent Rocks! sounds great at low frequency, like the ED-209

• Steve Barfield from Rigol NA paid me a visit a few weeks ago.  (He's a fan of EEVBlog, also.)  He brought some of the new 4000 series gear to demo and let me fiddle with.  This was one of the devices he brought along.  I'm glad to see you get your hands on one.  It's definitely on my list of wanted items.
  
  But I did finally learn how to pronounce the name of the company.  It is indeed as the voice generator suggests.  Sounds like Ree-goal.

  I heard that too. The 'b' starts sounding more like 'g' when he speeds it up.
