GUMI's facebook page just shared this video, 【Megpoid English】 Introduction which is very helpful for those new to using the Vocaloid engine or even those who learned through trial and error and may not be familiar with the terms.
Since it says "Introduction", I'm assuming they'll be uploading other videos in order to help newbies become familiar with both the engine and the voice. And since CEO Noboru Murakami has uploaded videos of himself discussing Vocaloids and tuning before, maybe they might upload a video that will give short-cuts and fix-its for some of Megpoid English's more noticeable problems.
Remember that Megpoid English will be released on February 28! Preorders are available over at the Vocaloid Store, or if you'd rather try Amazon JP, here are the relevant links: voicebank only and the V3+voicebank bundle.
Just remember that software can't be shipped overseas, so if you live outside Japan, remember to use a deputy service for that. It's a more roundabout way of purchasing stuff, but it also tends to be less hassle than ebay or alternatives.
Lastly, the video, while in English, is voiced by a speaker with a noticeable Japanese accent. If you're having a hard time understanding it, you can go here for an unofficial transcription of the video.
