Hello, Actually, I don't use eloquence because of pleasure. I use it because that's all HIMS has. I like keynote, I'll admit that. But I'm still saying, that while it may not ignore it, the way voice over itself handles punctuation is different to everything I have heard in my life. Because some voices handle it well on other products, and all voices do the same, I think its the way apple has it. Well, I'll get used to it. Thanks all :)
