reading speed of 75/85%? I can't take that in, or, rather, I can but am,
completely
flabbergasted: my flabber has never been so gasted! I have mine set at
15/20%, and I can't see
myself ever asking Virginia Olarinshaw to go any faster!

Subject: Re: VOICE over ignoring punctuation marks?
I have to say, I've never experienced this. I use Samantha or one of the
American Siri voices all

of experience at the
speed you're using. I suppose it's something you get used to, because it's
something I've never
picked up on.
