Hi to all Yes, Loquendo is available for Linux platform, The problem is that Loquendo doesn't sell TTS' directly. They sell via a partner. In the following URL there is a list of partners that sell voices but I don't know whose of them sells Linux voices. http://www.loquendo.com/en/partners/business_partner.htm
The good notice, is that ONCE will sell english Loquendo Linux voices before the end of the year. I don't know the prize yet but I wish it won't be too much expensive :-) I will keep you informed.
