Is Jen Taylor still providing the voice of Cortana in Halo 3? The voice in the trailer didn't sound like her. If not, why?

Your specualtion is welcome but I'd also like to get a definitive answer from a moderator, or otherwise enlightened person.

In my opinion it was that Gravemind was communicating to the spartan through cortana.

In Cortana's first two voices in the announcement trailer it was her voice fused with a bit of gravemind. When talking about knowing his past and future, that is all Cortana, and sounds exactly like her to me.

I actually hadn't considered the possibility of the Gravemind speaking through Cortana but that would explain the rhythmic, almost lyrical tone of her speech. It wasn't just the tone that led me to believe it wasn't Jen Taylor. The inflections seem all wrong.
