Hi Barry,
Ah, this is a different animal. It is not a screen reader at all. The
Maestron is an ordinary Pocket PC, a Dell Axim in fact, with a special
overlay made, and a few self-voicing applications, including GPS. This is
by no means a screen reader. The only two screen readers proper, to my
knowledge, are Pocket Hal, or whatever Dolphin are going to call it, they
haven't decided yet <Grin>, and MobileSpeak Pocket from Code Factory. If
you install a third party application and try to use it with the Maestro,
and it hasn't been especially scripted, you will get diddly squat!
All the best

There's also that product from,

Which a friend owns and has the GPS working beautifully on it.

Hi Carol,
I don't know the exhaustive list, and I don't know of any it specifically
won't work with, but http://www.codefactory.es will furnish you with all
that.

Hi folks,
MobileSpeak Pocket is also very close to release, and we will be a UK
dealer
of it. The price will be 300 pounds, but if you place an initial order
for
the first month, i.e. until the end of September 2005, we will give a 15
percent discount.
For information, please see http://www.codefactory.es, and for articles
and
reviews on it, please see http://www.mspusers.com.
By the way, you can download a trial version now, if you already have a
PDA.
All the best

Thanks Yusuf and Jonathan for getting back. I'll ring Dolphin tomorrow -
the
website isn't very clear about the release of Hal Pocket.
Cheers,

Dolphin have demonstrated pocket HAL several times over the previous
year.
You'll need to talk to them to see if there is any further information on
a
release date.

Hi everyone,
I was wondering please, other than Mobile Speak Pocket from Code Factory,
is
there any screen reader for Windows-based PDA's? Do the Talks folks have
any
plans to release a compatible version of Talks with them Pocket PC's?
TIA,
AmroB
