It talks, yes...if I remember correctly, it says floor numbers and stuff. No, it's not annoying. It's actually quite useful for visually impaired people.

Are you kidding me? Harry Potter, anyone?



(That's the best thing about the ETB elevators; it's a 'cool, female voice' that speaks. Ha!)

When I first read talking elevators I thought someone programmed an elevator to have a conversation with you as you go! Once you said it just says floor numbers, I was very disappointed...

For some reason I cannot edit my post.

The HP elevator can't 'talk' talk either, it just announces the floor. Like Snowman, I thought that was what this topic was about and was sorely disappointed, haha.
