Not really. You can't change, for instance, the voice used in a say all command versus the voice used when reading line by line. Yes, you can change the voice for things like typing, content, menus, and so on, and you can set up activities to use voices in different apps, but there is no way to set the rate and voice for say all reading. If I missed it, please let me know. On Oct 3, 2012, at 2:29 PM, Chris <christopher...@gmail.com> wrote:
