You can use TTS Service Extended to easily switch between SVOX and Ivona on your PE.
There really isn't much to it. TTS Service Extended is used to manage your TTS libraries. When you open TTS Service Extended you will see a section named Engines. Check the TTS engines you want to manage using TTS Service Extended. You can then use TTS Service Extended Default Engine pull down under Default Settings to easily switch between SVOX or Ivona. Once you choose the Default Engine you can Listen to an example to verify the correct TTS engine is selected.
If Ivona HQ or SVOX is currently your default TTS App you will need to clear the Launch by default for the App by using Settings --> Applications --> Manage Applications. The next time you launch any App that uses TTS you should receive a Complete action using pop up at which point you would choose TTS Service Extended and check Use by default for this action.
Basically TTS Service Extended will be used to switch between SVOX and Ivona, and any App requiring TTS will go through TTS Service Extended and use use the Default TTS Engine selected inside of it.
