eSpeak is a free package, and I don't know how much time its developer can spend on improving it. It is indeed slow and crackly.

Hihasanyone noticed that using satogo with its default espeak speech produces crackly slow not very responsive speech? Josh Kennedy jkenn337@xxxxxxxxx <mailto:jkenn337@xxxxxxxxx> my blog is at http://jkenn337.klangoblog.net (updated frequently). Tired of Microsoft Windows and paying thousands for screen-readers? try out NVDA, get a mac--, nvda--for Windows, or try out and switch to grml, Ubuntu, Vinux, or knoppix-adriane Linux desktops. Knoppix ubuntu and vinux-cli-max are the most accessible for beginners. also try vinux-gui and encourage those at www.cherrypal.com <http://www.cherrypal.com> to use windows-xp and nvda knoppix-adriane Vinux-cli-max or grml so all blind people can have an accessible computer.
