Hello Yardbird:
So many people, some how, fall into the idea that these companies have a
regular cycle for releasing new versions of their software.
The point I was trying to make was that they are a law unto themselves.
Just because Freedom Scientific has released a new version of JAWS around
November for the past few years, does not mean that it will remain so.
For example, after releasing Version 10 in November, if that is when it is
released, they decide to release a major update in March, 2010.
At that point, Freedom Scientific may decide that they won't release a new
version until the following March, 2011. Does that mean that subsequent
releases of JAWS will be released each March from then on! Of course not!
My last point was, unless someone who works for Freedom Scientific and who
is a member of this list and has inside information, notifies us immediately
before the release is posted, the best way to find out is either to contact
the company directly, or subscribe to the Freedom scientific News Letter
which will keep you up-to-date with Freedom Scientific News.
I told you that this list would be choked with unnecessary crap like this.
I admit that I have just contributed to the crap myself.
So, that is my last contribution to the crap.
And now that I am emptied out, I can get on with more important things.
Have a great day everyone, where ever you are!
Sincerely:
Dave Durber
