[Electronics-talk] Advancing on Amazon

Wed Nov 5 09:48:06 UTC 2014

Unless there's some new information I haven't been able to find with 
Google the blog articles at 
http://community.nvda-project.org/blog/NVDAAndEloquenceSituation and 
Eloquence2011 explain that neither ETI Eloquence from Nuance or IBM Via 
Voice have licenses that permit them to be used with NVDA. If this 
situation has changed, I'd be interested in learning more. If you can 
get Nuance working with ETI Eloquence or Via Voice then you'll probably 
have to go searching for a solution on the INTERNET that violates the 
licensing associated with either synthesizer.
