Text to Speech Agents

I downloaded the available text to Speech Agents for my Captivate 9; however, I still feel they sound like a robot. Can anyone direct me to agents that sound a lot more natural?

    Here is a great tutorial from Kevin Siegal on how you can train your speech agent to say certain words as well.

    I also find that Julie isn't bad but it's worth checking out the proper syntax from Neospeech. I find this helps a great deal. Check it out here.

    I find Paul pretty natural, not that robotic.
