I hate the British voices too. They sound a little more like south african in
places. I've always liked Elloquence, and actually find it very difficult to
deal with any other synth now.

Hi all,
I'm surprised by this thread on two counts. The reluctance of Jaws to shut
up is a problem that I have encountered before, but certainly not as recently
as in Jaws 5.0 or 6.0. My machine, which generally suffers from all known
ailments, shuts up the instant you touch almost any key.
As for Eloquence, I used to dislike it, but have gradually come to prefer it
to everything else, i.e. so long as you stay away from the British voices.
They really are appalling. Most of the time, I don't even notice the American
accent.

I've been using Jaws with the synthesizer called Text Assist for 9 years,
but it don't work with XP, to which I recently upgraded, so I've had to use the
awful Eloquence. Actually there are some features which this does better, but
if I have it yakking away and try to stop it with the Control key, it usually
takes a very long time to react.
Any ideas? JFW 5.1 and Sound Blaster 5.12, if that matters.
