-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, There is a free as in beer version of ViaVoice, but it is binary only and doesn't work with newer system libraries. The new IBMTTS is non-free and requires payment. I can't think of the web site off the top of my head since I am perfectly happy with the free as in speech eSpeak. However, if you aren't used to a British accent, IBMTTS is about the best on the market at a reasonable price, since if I remember it is around $50 to purchase it. I could be wrong about that price though. HTH, Lorenzo - -- I've always found anomalies to be very relaxing. It's a curse. - --Jadzia Dax: Star Trek Deep Space Nine (The Assignment) -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.3 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFFcjCOG9IpekrhBfIRApEEAJ9HD5wmbye+Sz5Th5H5lgS59GENIACePQY/ xpIIcb/zw0AkaYG7j1fDWd0= =z4el -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
