VOCE QUERYHi.

I wouldn't touch that bloody real speak with a ten foot barge pole.  Firstly, 
to answer Ian's query, the voices used are Jennifer for UK English and Jane for 
US.  I have a 6680 and demoed talks 2.5 with real speech.  Firstly, the 
application takes a lot of room on a memory card (approximately 5-7 MB) and it 
is extremely slow if not left alone IE pressing keys quickly on the phone e.g 
when writing text messages.  For the time being, stick to the eloquence US or 
UK voices as they provide adequate speech output that is intelligible and does 
not take up too much resources.

Warmest, Ibrahim

  Hello Ian

   

  Afraid not sure on the actually voice name but yes, in that the new talks, 
version 2.5 can use the realspeak  synth.  I'd direct your enquiry to Steve 
Nutt at computer room services.

  An In Touch listener has contacted us to ask whether there is a version of 
Talks which uses Scnasoft's new Real speak Emily or Daniel voices?  Anyone know 
the answer please?
