Hi Colin,

The problem you have described below is not a jaws problem, if the keys are
not working then it is to do with the hardware not the software.

If you would like to tell me what other problems you are having with jaws 7
then I will help you with know problem.

I have windows xp home and use a laptop and have had know problems, if we
talk about the problems then I am sure we can all help you.

As I have said before I have downloaded the demo of jaws 8 and find that
fantastic also, we all need to look deeper before blaming our wonderful
access software as most of the time it is not the speech software, but third
party software *smile*.

Don't despair all will work out in the end *smile*.

Hi Martin and all,
Personally, I'm on the point of defecting to Window-eyes.  People using this
program never seem to have any of the problems or endlessly recurring
expenditure that we have to put up with, possibly because the users' list is
closely monitored by the designers of the program.  I'm told that one of the
Keyboard options available to you is to have a Jaws keyboard layout, though
my informant advised against this on the footing that the Window-eyes
keystrokes are a lot more logical than the Jaws equivalents.

I've been utterly disgusted with the performance of Jaws 7.1, the last
update in my current SMA, so I'm not at all inclined to fork out good money
for anything likely to be as useless.  One fairly significant problem is
that the keys on my braille display never produce any response until they've
been pressed at least two or three times.  I accept that, if I were prepared
to spend a fortune and/or several days playing with the system, I might be
able to make it a little more functional, but Playing with my PC is not my
life.  This endless series of half-cooked updates is a rip-off.  If we were
dealing with a product in more general circulation, I have no doubt
whatsoever that Trading Standards and Watchdog would be involved by now.

Colin Baxter

Hi all.

I have a feeling that on this list, critisim of jaws is almost taboo.  =
Well, I'm sorry, but freedom can make a hash of an upgrade like anyone else,
= be they serving a small market or the mainstream.  It seems freedom have =
for the most part hashed up v 8 of jaws.  If we don't complain, they won't =
fix the problems.  I for one can't get v8 to work at all, and I've tried all
sorts of things.

I'm exercising a consumers right.

The right to comment when I thinka  product's crap and I think Jaws is.

What's wrong with that?

This is shocking.

I've just been reading the latest disaster and can not believe somebody = is
honestly going to pay for this.

This thing isn't even supporting Vista for goodness sake!

And what is all that SAPI Alia's stuff about in say all?

OMG, that's a new feature?

More and more nonsense!

I'm raging because, I like many wasted my money on this rubbish for = years!

I'm disgusted because, many still will!  Also rehab agency's and that =
whole area will thrust this product on unsuspecting souls.

Note:  this is a consumers viewpoint and I think it's utter pooh. Barry =
