I discovered that you can get the TTS voices working (at least temporarily) on the C510 (and presumably the C530). This is not to be entered into lightly though - hangs / crashes /lock-ups are to be expected -- and there's a lot of deleting to do to make enough space for the new voices.
However - if you're feeling brave, go to http://GeePeeEx.googlepages.com/text2speech
(The instructions are too big to type in here).
The first time you hear "Turn right on so-and-so road" instead of just "Turn right", you'll be hooked!!

Great Find
Thanks for pointing out that software. Just delving into the "hacking" of my friends and families GPS systems and this will come in handy!
