Deleted some voices off my 475 and tried to install some 'TTS voices' and 'Normal voices'

It installs TTS voice but errors when trying install normal voices

Whats the difference? Do I need normal voices?

The TTS are smarter and can do "Text To Speech" and are needed so the device can say "Turn Left Into Ambleside Avenue"

A normal voice file can just say pre-set words "Turn Left".

Correct.

Also in the Mio app when installing voices you will see your device has TTS voice files installed for many languages.

If your device is short on free disc space you can use the app to delete these freeing up about 30megs of space for each one.

They are all also on the DVD and of course the application lets you make a full backup of the device which is a wise thing to do.
