My issue with the stream synthesizer is mainly inflection. Samantha doesn't
have much but the biggest problem is that her inflection after a comma is
the same as it is after a period. Tom's voice does somewhat better but it
seems to me with today's technology, they ought to be able to do better than
that. Guess it's a matter of keeping the price reasonable. Anyway, I know
it's a very subjective thing. Lou
