4.0 out of 5 stars It does what it says, February 21, 2005

By	Gasp! - See all my reviews

It does what it says and is quite handy.
But it does not work with Windows Pocket PC 2003 so everyone with that system must wait for an upgrade. If you have Windows 2002 or earlier, you will be happy with the purchase.

5.0 out of 5 stars Use it with Windows Mobile 2003 2nd Edition, September 22, 2005

By	L. Powell "Tax Guy" (Oaks, PA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Last year I chose my PDA platform based on whether it supported text to speech (I love Palm, but it didn't, Pocket PC did). My Asus MyPal A730 (with Windows Mobile 2003, 2nd edition) reads to me for my entire two hour commute each day using iSpeak for Pocket PC. I leave my PDA in portrait mode and have not had any issues. iSpeak is installed on my 1GB SD card so I don't use up the main system memory. It's very easy to use. I don't know of a better text to speech engine out there for a PDA and would recommend this to others who have a lot to read and time to listen. As I drive an older car that is a little loud, I use an FM transmitter so I can listen to iSpeak through my car speakers.
