Hi all For anyone who's interested in getting the Scansoft real Speak version 4 voices , Nextup.com now have them available for purchase and download online. To get the voices, you need to be a user of their Text Aloud product, or else you need to buy it when you purchase the voices. At the moment there are a few voices that they aren't making generally available, due to some distortion issues, but they have a very wide selection of voices and languages. They are available for $25 each during the beta-testing period, and when they are officially released they will be $35. Details at www.nextup.com/scansoft.html James
