I'm totally with you. I cannot stand them either. OK, they were ever so
slightly better in Jellybean than in Ice Cream Sandwitch, but even still,
no? thank you! They also sound a ton better on an actual mobile hone/tablet
than they do on a full fledged computer, trust me. Still though, I agree
99.999 percent with you.

Subject: Re: IOS 7 did I hear something right?
not sure what google voices you talking about, but personally i can't
stand the voices for talkback.
It is overall great news. Hopefully they will also work onn the
international voices as well as the english voices.

I'm very glad they're finally doing this. This is to compete with Google
which has a much better voice than Siri and the voice over on iOS.
Here's to hoping they step up Siri's performance as well. I have been
using
Google for everything except for sending text messages.

I'm not sure. I listen to both of those voices several times (I recorded
the entire thing is way file) and to tell the truth, I didn't recognize
Tom as the male voice. No. I think this is a completely new set of
voices.
I am also very hopeful that these new voices (assuming they are you
voices) will also be available on the Mac. Now, if that is the case,
these
are much better voices than anything we have ever used before.
To me, that is enough of a reason to get excited about the new iOS 7.
And
then, of course, there is the new control panel. I would guess that one
would access it by swiping three fingers upward on the screen. But, that
is only a guess.

I'm
use to hearing. They did mention having French and German voices too and
demonstrated those briefly. And they said more hq languages were coming.
