    Google Maps - Had Anyone Done This?

    My old TomTom could have the voice changed. The same old voice gets old...
    Is it possible to change the navigation voice?

    Also, is there a way to add a box that shows the speed limit of the road you are driving on?

    Am I asking too much?
    The way I'm looking at it, my phone is much smarter than my old TomTom...

    Well, at least I'm not alone...
    I just wish someone with some talent would have (or does) gave/give this a try

    If that made any sense at all...

    Yes you can, just download the svox engine from market and (buy)load a voice of your choice. Then you'll have to go into your voice settings and set it your default engine to the SVOX TTS.

    Wow, that looks like a PITA
    The 1st one I find (free) to download and try...
    1st comment says it's "spyware"

    Would you know enough to recommend anything?

    There may be others, but this is the one I was referring to: AppBrain Android market | Classic Text To Speech Engine

    Its not any harder to implement than switching a keyboard for the first time.
