On my new Jensen NVX430BT GPS I cannot figure out how to activate the text to speech ?

- First off my Jensen is Model NVX430BT the Touch & Go (manufactured by Audiovox): On my model, this is how I got the text-to-speech to work - when you first turn the unit on, from the Main Menu go to ‘Navigate’ then from that menu select ‘Settings’, then ‘Language & Units’ then ’Voice language’, from there my unit gives me three English (with the US flag) options: male-Jason, female –Amy, or female Samantha TTS v2.0. That’s the one - female Samantha TTS v2.0. Also just make sure after you select this option that you also you select 'OK' at the bottom to activate the new selection.
I wasn't able to find a female voice option that showed tts. Am I missing something?

-   I want to buy this unit but only if the TTS works correctly-when you put the female with the TTS by the name does that get it to work properly and give out street names? Please someone answer because it took me forever to find a unit that I liked and this is a necessity and the adhesive with unit which is not mentioned bu does come with unit doesn't it. thanks.

-   I have the same issue. It was advertised as having text-to-speech, but I can't figure it out. There is no mention of it in the manual. Is there a firmware or software update for this?

Anyone know where I can download updated maps for my Jensen NX430BT? I don't know where to go to find the maps.
I figured it out. Although not mentioned in the manual or on any of the menus, one of the female voice options has "tts" following the name. If you chose it, the text-to-speech will work. I tried it this weekend in San Francisco. It worked very well.
I'm about to return my Jensen NVX430BT because apparently the maps cannot be updated! The maps installed on the unit I just received are obviously outdated and there is no support from Jensen to get them updated. Too bad, this thing has it all except good directions.
