Built-in TTS vs MobileSpeak/Talks

[Drenth, Joe]

Hi Olusegun,

Thanks for the information.  In follow-up, though, have you used the
built-in TTS of the newest LG phones to compare its functionality with
that of MobileSpeak?  In comparing the prices, I'd have to spend $300
for MobileSpeak Pocket, plus at least $250 for a Smart Phone capable of
running Windows Mobile, compared to getting a phone with just the
built-in TTS for a total of $50 or less -- That is a large prices
difference for I-DON'T-KNOW-WHAT improvement in accessibility.

If anyone out there has the LG enV (VX9900) and can attest to the pros
and cons of its built-in TTS, I would greatly appreciate it.

Thanks,
Joe Drenth

Hi Joe:

MobileSpeak will work primarily on phones with the Symbian software.
These are mostly Nokia phones and they run on the GSM network.

If you need a Code Factory product that would work on the Verizon CDMA
network, consider the Palm Treo 700W for which you will need to purchase
MobileSpeak Pocket.

Factory's speech access technology, visit:

The LGS phones you referred to in your note WILL NOT WORK with any Code
Factory speech access product.  Their built-in speech access is all you
can get!
