New voice in GPS

All,

Not sure if this has been posted, but I used my GPS for the first time after receiving the ICS update and I have a new female voice. Was never sure if you could change the voice on the navigation but it actually changed mid sentence. And I know I'm not losing my mind... Ok, there is a slight possibility but...

I noticed that too. I like this voice much better.

Yeah, the voice is more natural sounding than the previous. Like a real person. But, wonder if we'll ever have the opportunity to change the voice or even purchase other voices... Like other GPS devices.

Has anyone had her voice change to a robot? Sometimes she sounds like a woman, other times a distorted robot...
 
I think the new voice is heavily dependent on a data connection. Whenever I drive through a spot where the data is flaky she reverts back to her old robot self... It's kind of creepy- like in a movie where the hero suddenly starts to realize the world around him isn't real.
