The iPod shuffle's new voice feature is a great navigation tool for screenless browsing of your music collection. But how does that little device read all of your music to you. That takes a lot of CPU power.
The answer? It doesn't. All of the voice rendering will be done on the PC or Mac in iTunes 8.1. That's why the PC voice will be a woman (built in voice system) and the Mac will be a man's voice. Apple filed a patent for this a few years ago as we recall, anyone out there find it?
