Maybe I'm stuck in my old ways or something, but I still like having speech as early as possible so I still use a statically built kernel with my Speakout external synth. But I use software speech a lot too so I might consider switching to modules so I can replace speakup more readily without having to rebuild kernels; even though building a kernel isn't all that hard either.
