Hmmm! Vince I will have to give that some thought! (smile). I have often wondered what TTS voice I would like to have if it could be adapted for my own use, never mind an older person, (lol).

It can't be that difficult! Wondering what a voice suitable for older people is?

Surely the request should have been refused. I find it very hard to believe that a more accessible alternative could not have been found.

Unfortunately the survey is not accessible to keyboard users. That's ok -- the primary audience is older users unfamiliar with assistive technology. We're looking to get about 50 responses. http://aaronius.polldaddy.com/s/speech-survey-uk Thank you, Aaron Aaron Leventhal Director of Product Management, SaaS 781-645-6000 www.aisquared.com -- Take action to ensure blind and partially sighted people don't miss out on vital care and support.
