[bcab] Re: Fw: assistive technology - blind and no arms

JSay which combines JAWS and Dragon Naturally Speaking is probably the best 
solution I can think of though it is quite expensive and it is important to 
have a good understanding of how both JAWS and Dragon Naturally Speaking 
operate from a user perspective.  Each user would also need training to use 
the system.

A pentium 4 processor or eqrivalent is required. Centrino laptops can be 
used.  I believe that 2 GB of RAM is also recommended.

I work in a training centre for VI adults in the UAE. Your mailing list
is a lifeline with the outside world on all VI matters. THANK YOU.

My request is for advice on assistive technology available to a blind
person who has no arms. Can they still use the keyboard in any way - or
is there any voice recognition software that would be appropriate?

Regards,
