ZappTek has just released iSpeak It v2.1 for the iPod. With iSpeak It, you can take any document or web feed and convert it into an MP3/AAC track in iTunes using your Mac's built-in text-to-speech capabilities (visit Cepstral if you'd like to find better voices). Download news, weather forecasts and driving directions. From there it's a quick sync to your iPod and away you go!

iSpeak It version 2.1

• $14.95 USD, Buy from Kagi

Here is what is new in v2.1:

• Added the ability to download driving directions.
• Many improvements to web page and RSS processing (too many to list).
• The web feed list now shows the feed name instead of the URL.
• Adding web feeds is now more intuitive.
