Hi,I would think that Nuance might be using some sort of statistical synthesis too.
see http://www.nuance.com/news/pressreleases/2007/20070327_speech.aspthough they don't *explicitly* mention it in that press release, the description of the system matches the description of HMM-based speech synthesis quite well.

Hi all, Now I'm exploring commercially available HMM-based speech synthesis products to list them in our journal paper. I guess some companies sell HTS-based products, but I think only SVOX Pico (http://www.svox.com/upload/pdf/svox-flier-Final.pdf) explicitly tells it is based on HMM-based speech synthesis. Does anyone know any other commercially available HMM-based speech synthesis products? Thank you very much. Heiga ZEN (Byung Ha CHUN)
