The Windows version of Infovox 4 has these "colibri" voices which are essentially like a compact variant. I have no idea why they couldn't have ported them to the mac. Something else I've noticed but this is only with a trial so it could be my imagination... Is it just me, or are the Infovox 4 voices slightly more laggy compared to 3?
