Text-to-Speech for windows phone 7.5

[madhusudhan_s]

I have been developing a app with TTS cappability and wanted to get suggestions as to which API to use,
preferrably free.

In WP7 there is no on-device API, but if your app can live with on-line dependency see: http://www.developer.nokia.com/Commu...indows_Phone_7 . If not, depending on your use case, you may find this article useful: http://www.developer.nokia.com/Commu..._Windows_Phone

In WP8 there should be an offline API for this purpose.

"Search" is your friend.

I'd suggest Nuance API (TTS and STT) , or The Hawaii project from Microsoft research (only Speech-to-text I think)
They're simple to integrate on Windows Phone projects , and you have samples on their websites.
Let me know if there's difficulties
