Voice announce calls on iPhone with… GarageBand?

Iphone_homeThis has to go in the “why didn’t I think of that?” category which I don’t think we have. It’s a slick and simple hack to get an iPhone to voice announce your callers by name and the concept can be used for practically any phone that supports custom ring tones.Here’s the trick from Mac OSX Hints: just use GarageBand 4 to record a contact name in your own voice. NOTE: Feel free to ask a friend to record the name for you if they have that sexy, breathy voice that’s pleasing to the ears. Save the recorded name and use it as a custom ringtone for that particular contact and you’re good to go! It’s a bit of work to do the voice-overs for all of your contacts, but you can do as many or as few as you need in a relatively short time.(via Steve Rubel)
