You know what... true... because think about when she reads the title of windows on I O S. Her pitch changes quite drasticly. So... yeah... you know... good point. I didn't think about that.

On another note, I was definitely not comparing Apple to Microsoft/I O S-OSX/Windows. I was simply making an observation. I'm sorry if you didn't take it as such.

I'm can't confirm that in Windows. But if they are full SAPI 5 compliant voices, such as NeoSpeech Julie, pitch and intonation can be changed.
And do you really want to compare a Mac to Windows?
I may be wrong, but I believe you can change the pitch of Samantha in an iPHone.

Hi,
I don't know about you, but I don't recall being able to change the pitch of these voices under Windows either. SOme voices simply have this limitation, such as the Acapella group's.
Best,
Zack.

I hope Apple didn't rush implementing the voices too soon. But it certainly feels that way. If you use any of the Nuances voices, Samantha, Jill, Tom, etc, you cannot change pitch or intonation. Yes, I'm not kidding, you cannot change the pitch or the intonation for any of the Nuance voices. I've tried and thought for a moment that I had too much beer, but no, Samantha kept talking with the same pitch and intonation, no change.
How disappointing.
