Hi Ari, Just wondering, regarding the Jaws dongle, can you choose which pen you have it installed on? I know with another screen reader it is possible to install an image file onto the pen of your choice. If I have an 8GB pen with most of my usual work on it and lots of free space, it seems counterproductive to carry another dongle with me just for the speech Also, does the Jaws dongle require administrative privileges the first time it is used? This is what has put me off buying a dongle, as to me the benefit of its use is outweighed by the need to get administrative rights for most of the likely places I would be using it. And having to argue with the tech guy for half an hour just to spend five minutes checking my mail - well you get my drift.. _______________________________________ Have a pleasant day, Kind Regards and Best Wishes, Hussein.
