BuzzVoice reads stories aloud

I follow Robert Scoble (@Scobleizer) on Twitter — why, I don’t really know — and usually just pass over his copious twittering. But the other day his mention of BuzzVoice caught my eye.  BuzzVoice takes the stuff you read and reads it aloud for you.

Of course a computer voice does all the reading, but BuzzVoice still seems like it would be more convenient than current ways of doing this — such as copy and pasting everything into a Text to Speech thing.

And there is an app for that (this).  You can purchase the iPhone/iPod touch app or access BuzzVoice via their site.

Below, a comparison of Basic vs. Pro plans from BuzzVoice:

I watched some demo videos.  They accurately show how the service works, but why no samples stories.  Sure, you can easily register for free to check it out, but I see no reason why real, working examples shouldn’t be out front.
