It's sad when some of the phone auto sestem sounds better then our
voices; and yet, they want to charge us so much.

I'm sorry to hear that. I don't think any of the so-called high quality
voices are all they are cracked up to be, and because they try to sound
human, when they fall down, they're awful. Maybe its psychological. But
despite the fact that these voices can sound good when things are just
right, that condition seldom prevails, and a wanna-be human is much
worse than a more mechanical sounding synthesizer with known but
consistent flaws. So I'm sorry that there won't be an alternative such
as a tripple talk chip or even Eloquence. I know that the choice of
speech synthesizers is a personal matter. So I hope that once this
product is out, some consideration will be given to adding
alternatives, although obviously, the hardware approach won't be
possible. Too bad, as hardware like the trippletalk is still the
snappiest, most responsive speech out there.
