I can tell you that I wanted to buy ryan and Heather directly from Acapella for my Windows machine; they had to be bought with their engine; I think the whole package was called iVox desktop or something like that. I don't remember exactly the price quote I was given--probably still have it somewhere--but I can tell you it was VERY expensive. I did use the evaluation package download for 60 days and was able to get those voices from nextup.com just for use with Text Alound and Weather Aloud but can't use them with Windoweyes or Jaws as the purchase was only for use with the nextup products. All of this is just to say that the Acapella voices are very expensive and both David and Acapella are to be commended that they are being offered for this price on the Mac. I have no doubt that David had to do some lobbying to arrange this. Whether the new voice from Leopard was a factor or not i don't know, but the acappella product for Windows does cost. It's also excellent and I'd pay for it for windows too if I could afford it.
