pcworld online oct99... Other Voices PC Murmurings Are your eyes tired from reading documents on screen? A text-to-speech utility will read text back to you. It's a handy way to proofread or listen to longwinded e-mails. Text-to-speech is included in all the dictation packages we review here (as well as in IBM's ViaVoice), and you can buy it as a stand-alone product from Eloquent Technology and Fonix. Eloquent's $50 demo package can vocalize in seven languages. The $99 AV1700 Text Reader from Fonix handles only U.S. English. Both companies say they are continually working on making the voices sound more natural. pcworld.com
