I understood the iPhone had a whole lot of voices. I have to admit to
not having found them on my iPod Touch yet though.

Hi Andy 

Well I listened to the voice over on the iphone in store and with the
volume turned up I could hear it but as I said in another post I prefer
a male voice as my hearing loss doesn't let me hear high frequency
sounds all that well hence why a male, deeper voice is better for me.
Let us know how, with your hearing impairment you get on with it.

Thanks

Debbie

Hi Debbie -- ignore him, he's always like that, thinks he's a
comedian...

I too have a hearing loss and plan to put an Ipod Touch to the test on
Sunday at my local store, I need to know if I can hear voice over
clearly enough, both with hearing aids, and through headphones, and i
want to know how much I can crank it up for music with headphones. -

Andy
