I would love to finally see voice web browsing. The TTS and VR quality is the main issue. I've written an HN voice navigation and article reading but the .NET TTS is far from good.

Google's "Phonetic Arts" TTS engine sounds a lot better don't you think? It seems pretty natural to me. Go ahead and try a Google Translate from English to Spanish, or the other way around.

It's better but not Siri.
