This is a great program that I use myself quite frequently. It's called TextAloud and it translates any web page or email
contents, including ebooks into natural sounding voices.(Voices cost extra) The voices are really quite amazing. If you
don't have time to read web content, you can download to MP3 and listen to your emails while on the road. A great
educational toy!
TextAloud converts any text into spoken words.  Instead of the valuable time you spend reading on your computer,
imagine being free to relax, get up and stretch, or work on other things while the information you need is read to you in a
pleasant,
natural sounding human voice.  Better still, leave your computer behind.TextAloud's unique Text to MP3 conversion can
save your daily reading to MP3audio files to download to your portable MP3 player.  Listen to email,online news, or
important documents while you exercise, work or commute.Download TextAloud now and start getting more out of your
time.
My favorite voice is Neospeech's Kate. I use her to read my mail, e-content, and even e-books!
NextUp.com is pleased to now be able to offer new Text To Speech voices from Neospeech. Kate and Paul are US English voices, available in 16khz or 8khz versions, supporting SAPI5 Speech applications including most newer TTS programs from other companies, as well as TTS functions built into Windows XP.
