Has anyone tried these? What do you think - better or worse?
I am stuck behind a firewall at work and cant download even the test voice until I get a chance maybe at the weekend.

IMHO worse!
Tom has an annoyingly slow voice and Jane's is not as pleasant as the default voice. Of course others may think differently! _________________ Darren Griffin |

I'm running Jane at the moment. I prefer her enunciation to the default voice - but she does seem a little slow at times.
Still, it's a change - and I may then come back to the default female voice in due course!

I quite like Tom - he flows well. Unfortunately there's no "loud" version, so I can barely hear him sometimes.
Haven't tried Jane yet. _________________ What's going on? Where am I? |

The default voice has an annoying way of saying poundabout so I'm using Jane.
Haven't tried Tom 'cos I felt insecure using a male voice by choice! |
