Hi, If you look at the information on the FS site, or if you've heard the explanations given on the FS podcasts, you'll discover that although there's a quarterly fee for using Jaws tandem regularly, each Jaws customer is allowed a certain number of hours monthly or quarterly (I forget the details, sorry) to use it free of charge. As the control person, that is, whatever the proper expression is. For the person on the passive end, the one who doesn't initiate the connection nor control it, I'm pretty sure it's always free. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Thomas J.

I think the cost of this ($150 - $300) is a bit steep personally.

Why would you not want to use it? JAWS is the best I think, followed by hal and window eyes if I have to.
