iSpeak It ReviewI spoke too soon. - Version: 3.5.1, 9/19/2009 09:03AM PST

It works fine on my Intel 10.5.8 MacBook Pro but I can't get it to work on my PPC 10.5.8 G5 dual. It must lose stars because of that. I'll drop several in order to create the average I now think it deserves.

iSpeak It ReviewA nifty little utility - Version: 3.5.1, 9/19/2009 08:52AM PST

Now if only there were more options in Preferences. For example, other languages...

I think I would like to see it as a preference pane (on/off mostly) and a menu item. Open a document, go to menu, select "read it out" Or, even more ubiquitous, when Pref Pane is on, open document and tool starts to read it without further intervention, after a manually-set time delay.

Most Apple voices are pathetic. This technology still has a long way to go which, of course, is not the fault of this developer. I remember once trialling some voices and a core technology from Cepstral (or a name like that) and they were many times superior but...expensive.

A great one-trick pony that probably has a distance to go in terms of GUI and features. I support it.

As other say, great idea but poor in the execution. Not working 98% of the time... crashes and error meessages on conversion to iTunes. I don't have the patience of others to try this in different formats on different machines with different OS scenarios. If it doesn't work it doesn't work.
