I'm not sure. I doubt it, but, maybe. I'd have to look.

I know you can reset phones and other Android devices from your Google Play
account, can you do something similar here?

Actually? It didn't, surprisingly.
When I try to activate it, it takes me to the TTS settings, but I can't see
it in the list. All I see is the Sally voice that you get from Ivona by
default, and the ability to download other voices, which all appear to be Ivona.
I wonder if Acapela would work. I'm a little hesitant to try, as I don't
wanna crash my TTS engine where I have no speech.

OK, so, I bit the bullet.
I actually today bought me a Kindle Fire 8 inch 16GB tablet.
So far, I'm loving what I'm seeing, and Voiceview seems to work
exceptionally well, all things considered.
Here's my question: I have sideloaded the Google Play store on the
device, which by the way, for anyone wonderring how to do this, you don't have
to root the device, nor do you have to install any kind of a custom rom. The
whole process is 1? hundred! percent accessible, and is literally as easy as
just installing a few A P K files, and you're done.
Anyway, so for those who know about how this works, kind a, I'm
wonderring: I know I can't install Talkback on this thing, well... OK, you
can... but it won't work if you try to load it, although Shine will work, and
of corse, so does the default Voiceview app that comes preinstalled. Anyway, I
see in the Voiceview settings, that I can absolutely indeed get to the
Text-To-Speech options. So, if! given the fact that I installed the Google play
store, I go and try installing my purchased copy of Eloquence from the Play
Store, will that actually work? Would it be compatible where I could switch it
over? Or, am I stuck to only using Ivona which comes with the Kindle?
Chris.
