Tried one a number of months ago with the 1664. As with all voice
responding devices, the client asked me to turn it off after a couple
of months. The local "siren" is ok and the built in motion detector
can obviously only be used in particular areas. Everything else seems
the same as the RP1Ae1PQrsTu2VWx3yz Keypad. ( couldn't they come up
with an easier part number to remember?) The blue backlight is neat
though. Haven't had an opportunity to use another since,  but probably
will if the need arises.
