I'm moderately interested in the SpeakJet. I'm not sure how practical  
it would be outside of making singing robot sounds - which as corny  
as it is, is something I'd most likely do... :)

Would the TTS256 preclude one from sending particular pitch & timing  
information about the allophones being voiced?
