Hi. A couple of things I'd like to clarify: Apart from what our friend said, there are many voices in Espeak itself (the synthesizer that comes with NVDA by default). Press ctrl+NVDA+V (note: the NVDA key, like JAWS, could be CapsLock or Insert). Further, Here's a free synthesizer list from the NVDA website: http://www.nvda-project.org/wiki/FreeSpeechSynthesizerList About your 4th question concerning application scripts, there's a concept called plugins. Some are global plugins, while others are applicationModules (AppModules) through which one could add support for specific applications. Winamp has a plugin, Skype has skype talking (although it's not meant for NVDA exclusively), there are a fair few appmodules of which I was speaking that are bundled with NVDA and so on. About your 6th question, there's flat review, a mode you can access using insert+numpad7 and make use of by pressing the numpad keys: 7-9for previous, current and next line; 4-6 for previous-next word; and 1-3 between characters in the same order. Hope this helps, Ravi
