Hi Carolyn, I actually don't own a Mac but sounds interesting though. But 
correct me if I'm wrong the  ipod models/iphone have male voices but they are 
in other languages like french spanish don't know what languages/names they are 
but basicly the male voices are in other languages not the english which are 
all female voices. Of course maybe that's changed now. I would be greatful if 
you or someone else could tell me if this is so. As for the other thing you was 
describing it sounds like the "spoken menus" that came out in the ipod 4th 
Genaration which basicly when you synk your ipod for the 1st time ipod nano 4th 
gen and above it creates audio files so that when you use it when you are using 
the click wheel you can hear the genarated voice clips depending on your voice 
that you have selected in the pc/mac to be spoken on your ipod. 
But thanks for your comments anyway.
Daniel

Hi from one HI person to another<smiley>

Apple has several male voices available on their macbooks with the latest 
Osx10.6.  If you can get someone with a Mac to help you sync your device with a 
Mac, you could get the male voice, Alex, who is pretty easy to understand.  
Otherwise, I believe some of the other voices on the iPhone/touch etc have male 
voices.

  hello everyone, my Name is Daniel and I decided to join this list again after 
a while because before I was getting too many emails but now I'm back! But as 
my subject line says I was wondering for though's who use an ipod touch ipad or 
whatever apple product that has voiceover on it. Do you know if you have any 
male voices yet in it instead of the female voices that come with it. I ask 
this because a while ago I sent an email to apple accessabilty and got a 
responce saying that theywould forward it on the right people but haven't heard 
of anything since. The reason I want this because as well as being blind I have 
a hearing impairment too and have been since birth I wear hearing aids. I just 
can't understand the female voices with the products. So for thoughs who read 
this I would really be greatful if you could email ap...@accessibility.com and 
if your not hearing in pared I would still really be greatful if you could take 
the time for the bennifit of hearing in pared people plus being blind to   
explain this sort of situation to them. I have sent them another email this 
morning UK time but as of yet I have had no news. Its one of the things that's 
stopping me getting another ipod touch and giving it another try! Honestly I 
find it so fustrating. 
  Well I hope to hear from you all soon. 
  Many Thanks and hope your all having a plesent day weather its morning, 
afternoon or evening!
  Daniel
