Dear George and others
There are still some details not completely settled yet and so I would
not like to enlarge yet on what is already in the public domain just
yet. There are clearly a few gaps in the information at present and I
would urge everyone to hold their horses for a little while longer until
more thirst quenching information becomes available closer to release.
However for now, let me point out at the outset that most people on this
list are going to be using the Tandem Centre option, this is a
subscription based affair, rather than Tandem Direct, which is primarily
aimed at large organisations. This will be a one time payment linked to
a Jaws authorisation and flagged for in a similar way to the current
Remote Access option.
Let me again also make clear that the person receiving remote support
via Tandem would need to make absolutely no investment at all beyond
installing JAWS 10.0, however even JAWS itself will not be very useful
without apropriate authorisation so you can work beyond the 40 minutes
demo period. Those people who are very experienced JAWS users may be
able to reap the benefit of this type or remote access option in being
potentially able to make this part of their business using this service.
In the right circumstances it may also been we at Sight and Sound or
George can remote into your machines to resolve an issue with you. We
are currently testing some scenarios to scope out where the thing might
break as there will still be times when over the phone is the only
option.
The Tandem Centre option is currently is free until an unspecified
period after release of JAWS and thereafter will become a subscription
based model afterwards after the fashion of many mainstream services
currently available to sighted users. Contrary to Graham's assertion
(although we don't have the numbers yet) FS will release a small amount
of completely free time so that anyone who needs to make an occasional
(by which I would personally imagine once a month) use of Tandem in
order to help a fellow JAWS user out without having to purchasing an
subscription at all. You can listen to the FSCast here whichi conveys
in more detailed form much of what I have covered here:

Tandem is currently available free of charge for an as yet
unspecified limited period.
Hopefully Tristram will confirm, but my understanding is
that it will be a one time fee for the originator.

Hi Hugh.
While I agree it is a good idea, I understand that there
will be a charge
for this facility where you pay per connection if you want
to use Tandem
over the internet or you pay a fixed one off fee to use it
on your own
network.
Freedom Scientific give nothing away that is for sure!
Cheers
Graham
