There is an interesting article in the _New Scientist_ entitled: "Artificial voice system says hello", which includes links to two video demonstrations of the system (fast connection recommended for these). The article begins with this paragraph: "When Hideyuki Sawada says he wants his robots to be articulate, he's not talking about computer-generated voice synthesis - he wants them to talk just like humans. So he is designing an entire artificial voice system, complete with its own lung, windpipe, vocal cords and throat."
