Personally I think there should be. It's not fair paying for a high price of JAWS then to pay more just to add something on. Other screen readers don't do this; why JAWS. Apart from that I love JAWS to bits and it's saved my bacon on several occasions thanks to the Tandem feature.

Hi,

Is there a trial of this? I'd love to actually see it working before I commit any cash. Hmm, maybe I could couple it with one of the free magnifiers and that might do the trick. I don't really on speech for everything and still love to be able to see what I'm doing.

It can be used for that too, but it provides just what it says on the
tin!  Access to a remote computer.  I often need to access my system
at work from home or when I am travelling.  That's fine as I can use
Remote Desktop Connection in Windows - you can't with JAWS - unless
you have JAWS Remote Access.

Just a hunch, but isn't it the same as the remote training for Dolphin
products?

Or we could be right off the mark and maybe it might be something cool
like network install client server setups.  Which reminds me, I want
to play around with that with my Supernova.

It just allows you to use the "pro" versions of the OS. You can also
buy
add-ons like Remote Access and Tandem Direct, which, according to the
documentation, cannot be bought using the standard license.

Hi,

What! Jaws charge for the pro version?  Can anyone give a non-Jaws
user a
quick rundown at what the Pro version contains that would cause
someone to
want to fork out extra?  Oh, and how much more?

Thanks.

I don't recall an extra charge for a 64-bit operating system as far
as
JAWS
is concerned. There is still the extrra charge for JAWS
professional. The
32

and 64-bit versions come on the same dvd and the installer
determines
which
is needed.

Hi Adrian,

Only if you are using JAWS.  Window-Eyes and System Access don't
care now
whether you are 32 or 64 bit, it just all comes on the CD in the
case of
WE,
and a download in the case of SA.  It is only JFW that perpetuates
this
charging for your operating system type.

All the best

Steve

Seems the tosh satellite t130 and t110 ranges both come with win 7
64 bit
so
may be the cost of a screenreader upgrade in addition to the price
of the
machine.

Hi Denis,

It's not usually hard disk capacity that suffers, but things like
DVD/CD drives, which in turn help keep the overall size down..

I've got a Toshiba Satellite T130 which has 2 GB of memory (and can
take 1GB more), a 256 GB hard drive, wireless, Bluetooth and even a
web cam, Windows 7 Premium, and weighs just over 3 pounds.

And it cost just under £400 including VAT.

George.

Hello All,
Could anyone with experience of notebooks weighing a few pounds
please
recommend one?
I possess a Samsung N120 and like it a lot but it is still too
heavy
for me
to tote around and use on the lap for long.
Presumably you have to sacrifice hard disk memory for the lower
weight?
Memory is important as I am a user of a number of client software
programmes
and Jaws etc. I would like a notebook to ensure the keys are large
enough.
Regards,
Denis
