Hi Clive.
Will the latest cd be available for digital download from the likes of ITunes
or streamable through Spotify? I have consigned my cd collection to a dark
corner never to see the light again, so these options would be preferable
rather than having to have a disk posted to me.
All the best, Ibrahim.

Hi all,
anyone know who actually voiced Serena, and whether it is likely that Apple
will pick up on Daniel? (I have, by the way. He was voiced by Jon Briggs
(Weakest Link, BBC Radio Berkshire), and the real man behind the voice will be
on Guide Cats vol. 5 (Herding Cats) which should be out in time for Sight
Village.
Regards,
Clive

Well, I hope, but doubt that they would sound better under Voice Over. I hate
them. Still too mechanical. Why do these voices always sound as though they're
gargling as they speak? I'd hoped by now we'd be having a more naturally
flowing voice -

Hi
Thought some of you might want a listen to these, what do you think of them...
Begin forwarded message:
Hello
Here are samples of a couple of the new voices in Lion which have been doing
the rounds. These aren't generated through Apple's speech engine, they're the
same voices used by another service so the samples are generated from that.
They may or may not sound better when used in VoiceOver:
English American Accent –
Samantha<http://nextupdownloads.com/scansamples/samantha.wav>
English British Accent –
Serena<http://nextupdownloads.com/scansamples/serena.wav>
