[Electronics-talk] Sample of TinyToons voice

[Stephen Guerra]

It can read Text fles only, and if the E-Book is in a .pdfformat, then you
can convert that to plain text so yes

Hey,

got a question.  

The tiny Tunes says it reads e-books.  Does that mean regular e-books you
can get anywhere?  Or, does it mean that you have to get just text files for
e-books.

If that's the case.  Can you get an e-book from somewhere, and convert it to
text only?  

Any info would be very much appreciated.

must confess, I am a little surprised.  The original poster sure made it
sound like that TTS voice was the worst in the world;  however, I found it
quite nice.  Okay.  So the compact version of US English voice Samantha
would have worked better; but, honestly, that Tiny Tunes voice was not that
bad at all.  IF I didn't already have an Iphone, I might actually go for one
of those little units myself.
