Re: [Mac-cessibility News] Apple Media Event 9/9/09
oh, okay. I gotcha. the nano has a built in TTS engine. what voice is it? I suspect it's the same one as on the iPhone? and then the international ones are probably the same as the shuffle? that's really cool!! I'd really like to see one of these! i'm curious how the video camera fits in cuz the unit is already so small!!

Re: [Mac-cessibility News] Apple Media Event 9/9/09
Hi, I imagine since they said it would be like on the Shuffle, there will be international voices included. Also, although the Mac-cessibility News didn't mention it, along with the video recording camera and voice recording with built in mic, the new nano is supposed to have FM radio. from the ilounge live coverage page on the new Nanos: 10:58 AM: One more thing... Video camera. YouTube now has 1b video streams a day. They're being created by Flip Video, he shows... Flip sells a 4GB model for $149. Apple wants in on the market. 8GB - you get it for "Free" by adding it to the iPod nano. New nano is glossy. Looks just like the pictures we posted months ago on iLounge. Speaker now built in as well. Retained the small size - 6.2mm. Now good is it? Video looks a lot like iPhone 3GS video. The nano pictures are on our Flickr account. (See link above.) One click to send to YouTube from a computer. Looks to be 640x480. Nano's screen is now wide. 100 million units sold. By far the most popular music player in the world. VoiceOver is in there, "same as the iPod shuffle," plus Genius Mixes. Now will have an FM radio built in. And voice recorder app is built in with built-in mik, plus built-in pedometer. You can now sync up to Nike + with your pedometer data. Larger 2.2 display. Polished anodized aluminum. No word on whether VoiceOver is in the new iPod Touch models, although I suspect it is. And apparently no video camera for the Touch. At least nothing mentioned.

on the previous nano the computer generated the menus and speech whereas now the product has tts to do that job On 9 Sep 2009, at 16:17, Jessi and Goldina wrote: > > I dunno why everyone is talking about voiceover on the nano as if it's > a new thing lol.

Re: [Mac-cessibility News] Apple Media Event 9/9/09
because voiceover was never on the nano. it was sound files asociated with actions that were created by your pc or mac On Sep 9, 2009, at 8:17 AM, Jessi and Goldina wrote: > > I dunno why everyone is talking about voiceover on the nano as if it's > a new thing lol.

I dunno why everyone is talking about voiceover on the nano as if it's a new thing lol. I wonder what upgrades are made to voiceover on the nano?
