Re: The Talk2 List GPS and Mobile Speak

Basically Steve and I are looking to get Sprint's one and only pocket PC that's compatible with the Mobile Speak software. And since this unit has GPS capabilities, I was wondering what if any accessible GPS software there is that Mobile Speak can interface with. While both of us would love to track down a Trekker, they're just a bit too pricey, hence my GPS inquiry. John Clower

It's not posted anywhere yet, mainly because it's incomplete. If I get some time to finish it, I will. Though why someone would desire a synthetic copy of my voice is beyond me.

I can't get past the first one "do you understand what I'm saying?" It's recording perfectly (as I hear it when I go into the file within the directory itself), but every time I try and record that sentence it says "too low, too quiet and not clear". but it's stuck on the first one so am not sure what it's comparing it too or what's wrong with the recording. When I just try and hit the save button it just repeats that same audio prompt. *grrr Anyone know what could be going on? Cheers!

Re: The Talk2 List GPS and Mobile Speak
I don't use mobilespeak, but I know that wayfinder works well with talks, although the latest version didn't work that well with previous version of talks, but not sure how well it'd work with MS. Sure MS works well with most things, but in my opinion talks has always been in front with support for third party aps, so hmm yeah OK I'm not really answering the question. I guess the best thing'd be to try wayfinder demo and see how it goes from there.
