Hi, I sort of like the pauses in eloquence sometimes. I like it when it
pauses once in a while, like a real person does while reading. in the
Eloquence version in Jaws, it doesn't really pause that long while reading
books and things. it usually just reads continually, only pausing for commas or
periods.
When a person reads a book, they usually have a pause before a new section in
the book or a chapter.
I'm quite happy with the Icon's eloquence.

Yes, the pauses in the speech synth is very noticeable and when switching
from high speed podcast listening to reading text based books at high speeds
does take me a minute to adjust to the pauses.

Is there a way to cut down on the length of pauses on the braille plus?
With shorter pause length, about like jaws's version of eloquence does, it
would be possible to take in information a little faster. I'd like to put this
out as a request to be impliminted for the new version.
