Re: Re[2]: don't like the voice on the i phone
Hello Christian, The Regional Format section changes the way Date and Time are shown, but only changes the voice within the language the phone is set to. To change to Swedish, you have to go to Language instead, and there you can set any of the languages available on the phone.

Re: don't like the voice on the i phone
I'm told that the date format is affected by the regional settings, so if you're a north American and change to UK (perhaps Oz as well?), you'll get European date format, i.e. day/month/year. I actually prefer this, so no big deal to me. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.

Re: don't like the voice on the i phone
Hey there, You can always use some of the other languages available if you are a polyglot, though your apps won't reflect the language change. What would be ultimately stoopid is that one switches to a totally foreign language by mistake.. I do like the French voice though, and the deutcsh one is like someone who woke up after a big one the previous evening. Gonna test oit the japanese voice too, as i hold 7 languages to my belt, not that its an advantage when you got so many terms crammed in. You loose your whole vocabulary that way. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.

Re: don't like the voice on the i phone
Alex takes up way too much ram as I understand it. and there is another reason apple didn't or rather couldn't incorporate alex. I'm quite fond of Samantha. Alex may have been a little too soft to hear when out in busy places. On Jul 30, 2009, at 9:35 AM, william lomas wrote: > > Hi I am upset that alex is not used on the i phone.

Re: don't like the voice on the i phone
I udnerstand Alex is too big to fit onto the IPhone. There's a new device coming out according to the rumours - a tablet device. there's also talk of a dual core IPhone for which I will be waiting. So I hope that Alex will be included in both of those. best wishes, Simon On 30 Jul 2009, at 09:35, william lomas wrote: > > Hi I am upset that alex is not used on the i phone.
