British Voice
Is there any way to get the British Chick's voice on the 2nd gen NAVs like they can on the 1st gen as I have been reading on their threads?

Yep- the method for the 1st gen cars was to copy the voice files from the UK. But now, even they have the same voice we do.

A buddy of mine in germany has his bimmer nav voice screaming at him. It's one of the stupedist, AND funniest things I've ever herd: (in a screaming voice) "MAKE THE NEXT F'n RIGHT TURN!!!"

Yea, wish we could change the voice.
