Steve, you think Lucy is great? Hmmm! well whatever does it for you I guess. (chuckle.)
It's what you get used to using I suppose, and while there may be positive features of Mobile Speak like Braille support etc, give me TALKS every time. I was just interested in its rival, and to see how it compared.

Hi Jackie,

Have you tried the Acapela voices with Mobile Speak?  Lucy is great.

All the best

Steve

Well I have to be completely honest about this and say that, personally, the 
voices on Mobile Speak are horrendous.  It is like going back 12 years or
more to very synthetic speech it is so primitive.  I just can't stand them
at all.  I realise it's down to the individual, but blimey I thought the
speech on the Owasys phone was bad enough. These voices don't even say some 
of the menu applications or networks properly.  I know Eloquence isn't
everyone's cup of tea, but at least it's perfectly understandable. (smile)

Long live TALKS and all who phone with her ... or him!

Eloquence is available for use in Dolphin's Hal for Smart Phones though so 


I am surprised it is not also available for mobile Speak to.

Hi Jackie and all, as Steve Nutt said, there's no Eloquence for
MobileSpeak. This is, in fact, why I prefer Talks over MobileSpeak as I'm
hard of hearing and I find Eloquence to be just right for hard of hearing 


people. Yes Lequendo is nice, but since I've used Eloquence for over 10
years I'm so used to it that I tend to refuse to listen to other voices.
Hope that helps.

Hi All
 I've downloaded a demo version of Mobile Speak, and am beginning to
have a mess around with it, just to see how it compares to my beloved
TALKS.
But, so far, I hate the voices that come with it. I mean, you wouldn't 


want to lust after any of them would you? (smile.)  Anyway, is there an
Eloquence voice that can be run on Mobile Speak like there is with
TALKS? Please tell me there is!! (grin.)  I'm not saying you would want
to lust after Eloquence either but ... it's better than these other lads 


and lassies.
 I am running this software on a phone that doesn't have TALKS
installed, just to be on the safe side, so any help would be sincerely
appreciated.
 Thanks in advance good people.
 Jackie
