Sure but it's not very elegant and useful when you just want to speak a NSString.

Why not useful? I'm not saying it's ideal in terms of where this functionality *should* be exposed in the frameworks, but compared with wrapping your head around any existing (public) speech framework just doing this:

NSTextView *textView = [[NSTextView alloc] initWithFrame: NSZeroRect];
[textView setString: @"Hello"];
[textView startSpeaking]

...seems reasonably useful to me. Unless of course there's some other functionality you're looking for?

The "SpeechObjects.framework" seems pretty promising when you look at it through class-dump. It'll probably be made public in some future system release, but if you're impatient and don't mind using private frameworks (it's bad you know) you could probably link to it and just call:

[[NSSpeechSynthesis sharedSpeechSynthesisChannel] speakString: @"Hello"];
