Move announcements in live chess.

First of all, let me thank Chess.com for the best chess experience on the web.  It's amazing what you have done with the site.

I don't know if anyone has made this request before, but here goes:

from time to time I like to play live chess on a real board.  I usually wait for the move sound, look at the screen and copy the opponent's move on my board.  I make my board move and then enter the move on-screen. Before I started playing live on Chess.com, I would use a FICS front-end which called out the moves.  ie: "Bishop c5", etc so that the only time I would take my eyes off the real board is to enter my own move.

I would LOVE to be able to do this in Chess.com.  Is this something that could be included as an option?  Perhaps a feature for premium members?  Any feedback would be appreciated.
