"a bit OT: text to speech converter? Aiko needs a voice!"

Not long ago I got PoserSpeak which I'm quite happy with for my time-constrained-hobbyist purposes. Anyway, I wanted some more realistic sounding voices so I ordered a couple from nextup.com. I sent them a polite email to ask where my order was because it was a few days (not many) late . A fellow named Ken White quickly responded:

"Erik, it looks like I screwed up and it didn't ship. I'm shipping it today and throwing in the AT&T Voices too to make up for the delay. You should have it by Tuesday at the latest."

I thought that was more than generous since it really hasn't been that long. I think the AT&T voices cost double what the ones I ordered did. I'll certainly buy from nextup.com again.
