My text messages are turning into talking messages

I just got my first text message on this phone and to my surprise to phone read it aloud to me as soon as it was delivered.

What is this feature called? How do I disable/uninstall it?

Thanks!

It read the entire text message to you outloud? Have you installed any 3rd party apps? This sounds like the "TALKS" feature they included on one of the Ozone models.

I see there are a LOT of new-to-WinMo people getting the Touch Pro 2, and just passing along some knowledge, hanging around waiting for the hardspl...
