Hi Folks: May first is targeted to be the next major release of Rockbox. There has been major changes in the way in which speech will be accessed.
For anyone interested: do not install the latest builds of rockbox on your Iriver. If you do, your speech will not work. Cheers. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Brent Harding" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "PC audio discussion list.
