Yeah, Jaws is exorbitant for the layman but the state commissions for the blind seem to be giving them out to their communities. The problem is in most cases a person has to state goals to get the equipment and then prove that they are earning something to get service. It's a catch 22 that not too many people who are newly disabled know how to cope with. Government bureaucracies are very impatient and everyone wonders why a person who became handicapped last month aren't productive just like the person whose life is continuing as before. ----- Original Message ----- From: "G.W.
