*Free* text to speech readers....

hi,

Can anybody recommend a *free* text to speech reader please?

One that you can preferably copy/paste text into and it can then read it etc.

I have looked at a couple but none really fit the bill.

Basically lets say you have a text document or a web page and you wanna have it read to you (with a nice voice is a bonus :-).

Any ideas/personal recommendations?

Thanks in advance.

Re: *Free* text to speech readers....

Why stop at a nicer voice? If i used such a thing i'd want my (free) text to speech reader to go get me beer on demand, cook me dinner, tidy my house and specifically at the moment do my Christmas shopping.

The best one around is JAWS. Word on the street is that this internet thingy has a way of obtaining paid software for free, although that's not something I'd know anything about.
