o, it's definitely a bugt, as like I say, apparently, as you can see: I am
not the first person who's had this happen after updating to the 1.0.3
firmware. Now, what I don't know is if that is an issue with the firmware
or with ITunes itself, although I suspect probably it's more in the fw.

My experience with voice clips is that whatever I do in system voice is
immediately reflected after syncing with nano. I can change the rate,
change the voice, Now, it does take a while but even if there is nothing
else to do, the sync process generates voice cilips. I cannot speak to
the
windows experience but I have not had to turn off and then back on spoken
menus.

This must be a known bug, as I have the same issue over here. I have
reported it though. I'd suggest all yall call Apple Care and do the same,
so that we can get an updated patch.
I will say that unchecking that box to enable speech, hitting apply, then
rechecking the box, and hitting apply again definitely did the trick over
here. It'll take quite a while to resync the speech down though, so be
aware. Mine took about 30 minutes, but remember, I got an older Mac only
with u s b 1.1 ports, so that could a been part of the issue with my lag.
Anyway, give that a shot, and get back with me on your findings so that I
can relay 'em to Apple.
Chris.

To re-generate your voice clips, simply turn off the feature in iTunes,
apply, and then turn it back on. This forces the iPod to start the menus
over from scratch. Also, if you perform a firmware update, the menus
will
be regenerated. There is a XML file that contains the information about
Voice, Speed, and strings. You'll have to dig for it though.
