Hi,
I keep hoping the thread will die of its own accord, but it seems to be dragging. It now sounds like we have gotten enough information from it folks.

Thanks.

Jim

This thread is bordering on being completely off topic as well as advertising your product, but if you need beta testors, then I'm assuming your customer service, technical support, and management departments are nonexistent, right? Bit soon to start charging for your product as you don't know the costs involved in structuring your organization, no?

Thanks,

Matthew

Hi Lora. It will be for both nokia and the windows ce based phones. Mine will be 1 license per user, free minor upgrades and perhaps 20 or 30 dollars for major upgrades should you upgrade from a version you already own. As I said, mine will be a matter of a hundred dollars or slightly more rather than being hundreds of dollars. Cheers! ----- Original Message ----- From: "Laura Eaves" <leaves1@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

What series of mobile phones are you writing this for?
I have a Nokia N73 with Mobilespeak.
And BTW -- I just heard that Codefactory (the developers of Mobilespeak) have just relaxed their licensing to allow one license per user, not one license per phone, so you don't have to go through all the hoops every time
you get a new phone.
Thanks. Sounds like an interesting project.

Hi all. Within a few days, i would have finished developing an alternative screen reader for mobile phones which would hopefully be a cheaper and more
flexible replacement to talx and mobilespeak.  I would like to give an
opportunity and priority for a few members of the list to beta test my
product. I have not come up with a name for this mobile screen reader yet,
so feel free to come up with one and let me know.  The screen reader is
written with visual c++ and developed on visual studio 2005 using the smart phone device emulator. I will only allow for 5 applicants, and one very
important criteria is the ability to positively contribute to the
development of the software, either in programming terms or in usability.
If you have the inclination to help me with this, please write to me
privately.  Selected beta testers will be given a free copy of the full
working software. I am sorry that i'll not be able to pay financially, but
i hope the gift of the software and the satisfaction of seeing the
development through will be enough of a reward.  Thanks and cheers!
