Any program that will read Text messages outloud
 
Does anyone know of a program that will read out your text message instead of having to read it. My buddy has a mogul/titan and just recently lost most of his eyesight so it is hard for him to read text message and other stuff. But he pretty much knows his way around the phone and uses the voice command to do pretty much anything on this mogul/titan. He can also see some of the stuff but its blurry to him so reading a text message is extremly hard. So I told him let me find out on this forum I visit if anyone knows of a program that will read the text messaging for you.

Thanks to all..

Microsoft Voice Command is nice. My friend uses it, and he likes it a lot. I have never personally tried it, though.

I'll check out tellmetext as well...(I love XDA, great apps from there)!!! What would be really cool as well, is working in reverse....what you say gets transcribed into text message!!!

I've just been checking out a program called SAPIE.
http://www.personal-secretary.com/index.html
It sounds great. But I couldn't get it to install on my PPC6700. And then I couldn't get it to completely uninstall by any of the usual methods. I'm still working on getting rid of it on my PPC and also my PC. Searching other forums indicated that some people have had a lot of success with it. And others, like me, not.
I'm still waiting for a response from their tech support. 3 days so far.
Program comes in various versions from $14.95 to full feature dictation and interaction at around $40.00. If it worked, it would be worth it. Maybe some day. Or maybe, if you try it, you'll be in the "works for me" group.

Tell me text sounds like a crazy robot toy I had back in the day... I had so much fun texting myself bizarre stuff just to hear it read back . But I don't know if I could use it everyday its too weird...
