Hello, I'm the other blind user of this board. I'm here in Phoenix. Some of you might remember a while back when I posted about a brailled copy of I Wish You Good Spaces that I had ordered, and I wondered what your thoughts on it were. This was back in September 2002, shortly after Gord's entrence into hospital. They've really improved the voice technology to be able to speak and have it type out what you want, but I don't need that personally. I am able to type fifty words a minute. Everybody asks if I have a braille keyboard, but if they really thought about it that much, they'd realize that after typing that fast, do they really look at their keyboard when their fingers are going that fast? This here is a standard keyboard. Oh, JAWS stands for Job Access With Speech. If you'd like to investigate the program, and even download a demo to play around with, go to
www.FreedomScientific.com
and explore that site. They sell other products as well. Another good site to check out, if you're curious about how the visually impaired use technology is
www.ACBRadio.org
and go to on demand, then Main Menu. I've done several reviews for that show, so search down the huge page and find my name. Click on the show's date, and then use the B key in Winamp to skip the segments until you here my presentation. There is a lot there, so you could spend hundreds of hours exploring.
