What app have you found for the mac that is more accessible? Since pianopub
seems to be broken under mountain lion, at least
on my system, I'd be open to the idea of trying something different. Any
information you could provide would be extremely

Rose recommended an app called Pandora Jam, which I found with google very
easily. I haven't yet figured out how to log in
using this app, though. Are you sure you have the latest version of Piano Pub?
I updated and it works now.

That sounds overly complicated to me. You can go into system preferences and
set which os you want to boot into by default.
If you want a different one, hold down the option key while powering on your

about 10-15 seconds. You will be in a list of things
That is very, very strange. I just went into apps, ran the infovox manager

Good morning, all. For a variety of reasons, I've just about decided to take
the plunge and get an IPhone for Christmas.
After a lot of thinking with regards to how to make this endeavor as
budget-friendly as possible, my plan at this point is to
get an unlocked 4S so that I can use it with Cinci
before spending money on the overlay. You might find you can use
the iphone well enough by itself. I would
recommend the defender case over the one with the slide out keyboard because it
will provide more protection for your phone.

I did that. It's set at 75, but for some reason, the mp3 still records at what
sounds like a rate of 50 percent or so. I've
checked the speech settings multiple, multiple times. Thanks for the

For your text file, simple insert the embedded command for rate at the start of
