Hi Jenine and Graham, Just by way of a counterpoint, I barely notice the distortion. I'm using Samantha, so it may just be that it's less pronounced, but honestly, if Jenine hadn't written her message, I wouldn't have even thought about it. I'm betting that the distortion has more to do with the tiny speaker than with a problem with the voice. I actually think Apple's done a good job of pumping the sound out, and some distortion, IMO is inevitable under the circumstances. The other thing I'd mention is that you're listening to the voice for much shorter bits of language than you would on a Mac or an iPhone, so something that might really grate on your nerves if you're say reading a book, is less offensive if you are just checking the time or something like that, at least for me.
