It's just a case of getting used to the speech. Any speech takes a while to get used to. Elequence, keynote gold, decTalk and DoubleTalk all have their words they pronounce differently. Speech is a very subjective thing. Get used to it. I hope doubleTalk is here to stay in the BP as it makes things much faster. I'm sure you would want a device that is fast and responsive and similar pricing than a device that costs $100 or more just because it has elequence? -----Original Message----- From: bookport-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:bookport-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Frank Brown Sent: Thursday, 15 March 2007 11:44 AM To: bookport@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [bookport] Re: bp2, doubletalk etc. Hello, If they're going to insist on using Doubletalk, the least they could do is update the pronunciation dictionary so Doubletalk doesn't garble and misspronounce so many words. I have several instances each week where I have to repeat text several times (sometimes letter by letter) just to try and figure out what Doubletalk is trying to say. Frank Brown
