I have gotten Leopard's new voice Alex to read something in Textedit, but is there a way to save it to an AAC or MP3 format?
 
I know it's not the same solution but you could try the demo of Audio Hijack if you only need it a little bit.

there's a free demo, which should do the job. Just click the plus in the bottom left corner and select textedit (or the application you're making speak) and then hijack and record :)

Not exactly what you're looking for but it should do what you need it to do!
 
Wow, so simple! This is the first time I've even opened Automator in 9 months since I switched to Mac, and I'm surprised how easy it was to use. Thanks, now I've got a way to spit out lyrics for this electro track I've been working on :)
