Hi Gordon, I am not sure what you mean exactly with regional services. The only difference I have noticed is that it says Zed instead of Zoolo on the letter Z. When it shuts down and I charge it up, it comes up with Samantha and I turn the rotor to language and switch it back to Karen. So by it defaulting to Samantha, it knows where it is.

Hi Glenn The problem with this approach is, I believe, that it also impacts upon location services. If these services are not important to you, then it is clearly not an issue. However, if they are an issue, then you may be stumped. Of course, it may also be that this is not the case, but I'm sure that it did cause problems when I experimented with this some time ago. Personally I find the Nuance RealSpeak UK voice utterly nauseating. But I'm stuck with it because I'm not prepared to sacrifice the regional services.

I live in the U.S., but I like the Australian voice, I think it is Karen, but not sure about that. But she is much less demanding sounding like Samantha is. Or I should say, she does not sound so much like a bitch as Samantha does.

You are stuck wight he apple voices which sound pretty good. Some of them even have the hq or high quality voices but those you need a wifi connection and you need to be plugged in as they are about 300 to 400 mb a piece. Take care.
