there is only one voice but you can set the pitch and rate.  try alt+p to 
get to prefs.

Hi,
I have tried the windows version and have a couple observations that I feel
will apply here.  First, and most importantly, if you hit a site that
requires a plug-in, the download dialogue doesn't speak fully.  The buttons,
ok/cancel speak, but the filename entry field doesn't.  This may be windows
specific?  A good test site is www.neopets.com (it requires flash).  I also
haven't yet found how to set voice options, and the "stock" voice is
sloooooow.  Hopefully your milage will vary.
Regards,
Cecil
