Jarvis is a simple Mac application that uses text-to-speech engine to speak important news, the current time, and other information. You can choose which type of info to be read to you by this program, access the help guide if necessary, and mute the speaker whenever you like.
The utility provides you with a straightforward interface from where you can read info like the current time, today's quotation and headlines, check to-do lists (they are imported from your iCal app), etc. Unfortunately, the weather details aren't available no matter what location I'd choose.
The app's settings can easily be configured from the Preferences panel. You can choose which info to be displayed and spoken by the program. For example, you can link your email account to the app and let Jarvis read all of your new messages while you're working on a different task.
Furthermore, you can print the information that's being displayed on the main window of the app directly from its interface.
To conclude, Jarvis is a program that comes without a price tag and provides you with details regarding the current time, your to-do lists, and other useful info. You should give it a try, see how it works, and then decide if it's worth keeping it on your Mac or not.
