As far as I'm aware, so long as you set your default voice by selecting it [double tapping] in settings, general, accessibility, VoiceOver, language roter, to match up with your region, IE, Australian default voice for Australia, you can then add as many other voices to your language roter as you like. They can't be the higher quality voices but can certainly be used.
If any of this is incorrect, apologies as I'm more than happy with the premium Australian voice so save language clutter in my roter. It's quite large enough already. <smile> Danny: On 28/12/2012, at 4:08 PM, Gordon Smith <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi Glenn > > The problem with this approach is, I believe, that it also impacts upon > location services.
