Hi Amro, & All,
Thanks for that.
Now do you know if those other screen readers have the faacility as in
Jaws
whereby you can route Jaws to PC?
I NEED THAT FACILITY TO BE ABLE TO ctivate my 3 mobile broadband as
discussed in an earlier thread.

Oh sorry, Tony, I missed the earlier message you speak of...
Well, in this case, you can run either Jaws10 or Window Eyes in the 40
minute mode. Another suggestion is SAToGo; you need to be connected to
the
internet to use this one. Go to satogo.com and follow the spoken
instructions. NVDA is certainly a good alternative screen reader too.
I missed the earlier thread so hope I'm not just repeating something you
already know.
Cheers,
Amro

Hi Amro,
Don't know did you see my original email to the list on the subject of a
temporary replacement for Jaws!
I will be getting Jaws 10 in the next couple of weeks but need something
screenreader-wise to tide me over.
I can post the list on another occasion with the problems I'm having
with
Jaws 8!
Someone off list suggested NVDA which might do for now.
A peculiar thing happened that I somehow activated another voice whilst
on Jaws so when I unloaded Jaws the other cvoice went also!
Now I don't know if it was another jaws voice but the two were reading
an
email I was ron both together.
The voice sounds like what you would hear on a mobile phone reading
emails; not.
As far as I remember I have only NVDA installed as another screen
reader!
Thanks
Tony
