One of my favourite natural voices is Ivona Eric. The Keynote SA was also a
great synth, just a pity that Keynote gold multimedia is not available any
more.

Subject: Re: New text-to-speech voices in Lion
It would be nice if the DECTalk voices were available. I've used a
DECTalk for the past 20 years or so. In my opinion, there are
no better than Paul and Betty. If Fonix would provide them for Mac OS,
I'd purchase them.

Just read about -- and listened to -- the new voices that are
supposedly going to be part of Lion.

If this means that Alex will be gone, then I'll not be upgrading.
These voices, at least to my ears on just one listen, are a real step
backward from Alex. To be sure, I've so long been listening to Alex
that I've grown accustomed to him, but I don't think that's all there
is to it. I think Alex sounds more nuanced than the Nuance voices.
