This is just me... the more I read, the more my brain kicks in with
the correct pronunciation. I got used to the Bookport, and
nothing could be more annoying than saying "Drive" instead of
"Doctor." ...Or "street" instead of "Saint." If I am caught up in a
good book, I can learn to live with it. I like the more natural
sounding voices in Neo Speech.

which doesn't sound the same in JAWS. Anyway, I do hope the final
firmware release will correct some of this. While I like the device,
I am finding that the more reading I do hearing these
mispronunciations, the more annoying they become.
Anyway, still waiting patiently as possible,

Sandy,
Yes, the speech problems are probably fixable, but the questions
are: who can fix them, and when will they be fixed? Can HIMS fix
the TTS speech rules that are not working correctly, or will
Neospeech need to do the job? Problems with the BookSense already
have to go from the users to GW Micro and then to HIMS. If
problems with mispronunciations then have to be referred from HIMS
to Neospeech, it will probably take longer to get them fixed.
Does anyone know for certain what platform the BookSense runs
on? I noticed that Neospeech has versions for several different platforms.

This is a known mispronunciation issue. There are a bunch. But
unlike Doubletalk and the Victor Reader Stream speech, this is fixable.
