Billy:
I absolutely love these voices. Are they useable with JAWS? Will they keep
up with someone who types 75-80 words per minute? I am concerned about that
but I have my typing echo turned off because it drives me insane to hear it
talk as I type anyway. Thanks for sharing this with me. I love it.

Hey, Alicia!
Wow! You will be amazed by many of the advances in speech with some of
the newer voices. If you take a look at some of the AT& T Natural voices,
or some of the Neo Speech voices, you will absolutely die three times
over. Go take a look on this Website:
http://www.nextup.com
There, you can hear samples of the voices, and even type in some of
your own text, to hear how the voices sound with the kinds of things you
might be typing. Go take a look, and you will be glad that you did,
although, I must tell you, that I still use eloquent for every day things,
simply because the eloquent voice can keep up with my typing, and
unfortunately, the other voices simply cannot.
Take a look, and tell me what you think later...

Hello, Everyone:
I have a question about using other voices with JAWS. I am using eloquence
and the voice is not terrible, but it drives me crazy. Does anyone know if
there are other synthesizers you can use with JAWS that would improve the
quality of the voice?
Thanks,
Alicia
