Hi Jürgen, I'm not aware of any Hebrew voices available for either the Mac or the iPhone (through text to speech). For the Mac, the VoiceOver compatible voices that I know of that support languages with non-Latin input characters are for Greek, Russian, and Arabic (from Assistiveware's Infovox iVox voices -- these are the Acapela group's voices), and Japanese (from a separate DTalker Japanese web site). The iPhone, iPod Touch, and iPad platforms support additional voices, including some with non-Latin input characters such as Chinese. However, the iPhone/iPod Touch/iPad does not, as far as I know have a Hebrew voice, although it will support a Hebrew input keyboard. A few iPhone translation apps will support spoken reading of languages with non-Latin input which are not even supported on the iPhone. For example, Trippo VoiceMagix has a spoken voice for Thai (which is supported for keyboard input, but not for voice), but also for Hindi (which is not supported for either keyboard input in the Devnagari script, nor for voice on the iPhone). I don't know of any current iPhone or iPad apps that support a Hebrew text to speech voice, though.
I'd be interested to learn if any Mac users who run Windows under a virtual machine like VMWare Fusion use Windows-specific voices to read non-Latin input text. HTH.
