Tara,
No, you cannot. WinCE does not recognize
speech synthesis or ady a%sistive techqology
out of the box. And due to the limitations
to the sound card, and since speech
synthesizers like Eloquence and RealSpeak
counts as a software synth, your proposal,
unfortunately, will not work.

Using this theory, can we also use more
advanced synthesisers for speech?
Like latest eloquence or real speak?
That would be something very nice.

Ok, great theory, but have you done it?

David and list,
You can do it using ActiveSync (go to
Tools/Add/Remove Programs).

How would you actually go about installing
these drivers in the first
place
with assistance?

Dear list,
I'm here to present another
hypothesis/theory. This time, it concerns
3rd party hardware with BrailleNote mPowers:
Earlier, Dean Jackson clarified that you can
in fact install 3rd party
device drivers on your BrailleNote. This is
due to the two reasons:
one, because BraillenOte runs under Windows
CE 4.2, 3rd party hardware
that is designed for Windows CE 4.2 devices
(Windows Mobile 2003
devices included) should work on
BrailleNote; second, because it has
ARM processor, any device driver that is
compatible with ARM
processors (X-Scale, Strong ARM, etc) should
work. So here is my
hypothesis: because BrailleNote runs under
mainstream operating system
for embedded devices (except that it has
KeySoft and although it
cannot run 3rd party software at this time)
and because it has
mainstream processor built-in, users, with
help from manufacturers,
can instal 3rd party device drivers (not be
confused with software).
But, like other theories, there are
challenges to this theory: One,
that some people uses Classic, and there are
hardly any companies who
manufactures any Windows CE compatible
hardware designed for MIPS
processor, this will not work on Classic
(and the fact that Classic
will no longer receive updates after 8.0);
Second, some people still
use KeySoft 5.1 or earlier, meaning they
cannot take advantage of new
features that were introduced in Windows CE
4.2 through KeySoft 6.0
and above (these units still run Windows CE
2.12); Thirdly, many on
the list uses PK, which is also based on ARM
processor. In case of
this, this theory should apply as well;
fourthly, the driver that is
installed should not require end-user
intervention from the BN's end
(meaning that the driver should install the
driver package, not the
accompanying software because BN, at this
time, cannot run 3rd party
software). If my theory is correct, than we
don't need to worry about
supported WiFi cards, since anybody can
obtain a WiFi card that is
compatible with Windows Mobile 2003 (on top
of Windows CE 4.2) and
install the device drivers (if it cannot
recognize it at the first
time) using ActiveSync. If it is false,
that's fine (give us
explanation why it is false). Any input is
appreciated. Thanks for
your
considerations.
