Hi Jonathan, I, too, have difficulty understanding the Braillenote speech
moreso that I expected to. There are letters like b and p that I hve to hear
several times to be certain of, and the final consonents would be more easily
distinguished for me if they were not so softly concluded. For me the best
speech thus far has been the external Doubletalk with flextalk a close second
once I set it up to my liking. What I find interesting is that back when I was
a rehab counselor, my deaf/blind clients who were able to use synthetic speech
at all preferred the Keynote Gold External. Memory fails me, but I don't
believe my Voicenote has that same voice, or does it. In any case, I don't
understand it rather often. If not for that nice word spelling feature I'd be
lost.
