Listen to RSS News on Your iPod

An anonymous reader writes "Adam Tow and Alex King have announced the availability of Read it to Me 1.0, which creates a playlist of MP3 files in iTunes from your unread RSS news headlines in NetNewsWire that you can sync to your iPod. The software utilizes Apple's Text-to-Speech capability and requires Mac OS X 10.2.6 or higher and the full version of NetNewsWire." But if you use Victoria's voice to read http://apple.slashdot.org/apple.rss to you, I'll look at you funny.

Voice Synthesis not even required

Really, there are relatively so few possible warnings, compared to the cost of a ROM chip, that a couple hundred pre-recorded high-quality voices could be a really nice touch. That way, my wife wouldn't have to tell me, "your truck is beeping again - make it stop," she could say, "the truck says the alternator's not working," (get it fixed).
