Actually Clinton has more of a southern accent.

You could have Clinton for the mid-west accent, but you'd have a
problem, as your Archos would automatically do the opposite to what it
said.

I think it would be cool to have voice fonts of different accents.

My accent in ukspoken is probably what the BBC would once have
described
as "received pronunciation", which for those of you not from England
means I sound like a posh southerner. Ah, the benefits of an
expensive
education.

I'm almost tempted to do a Brummie or broad Derbyshire voicefont just
so
people can compare. As to broad Glaswegian, I'm afraid I have trouble
understanding it, let alone speaking it.
