Am I right? If so, how is TTS on Firefly? What languages are included, can additional languages be purchased (and how)? I am interested in English, Dutch and Russian.
BTW, does the device have speakers, or just audio out?

Thanks!
We have finaly bought Acapela TTS licence and now are going to implement it in Boox. If everything goes smooth it should be available soon.
Acapela TTS is better than Ivona. It's supporting much more languages and voices. It is even possible to create own voice packs. I am very excited to try it out. Somehow I like my voice
