Window-Eyes 6.0 is Now Available!
     Zdravo svima,

     Ovo je poruka na Engleskom jeziku, ovo je ona poruka koju vecina ne
voli... U ovoj poruci je najava za najnoviju verziju citaca ekrana
"Windows-Eyes". Zanimljivo kako se nekako u isto vrijeme pojave najnovije
verzije JAWS-a i Window-Eyes-a. Lako je uporediti ko sta donosi kao novost
i ko ima malu prednost. Takode i cijena je zanimljiva.

Pozdrav od Gradimira

Window-Eyes 6.0 Released and Available for Purchase and Download

(FORT WAYNE, IN, December 4, 2006) - GW Micro, a leader in
blindness-related
assistive technology, announced the final release of Window-Eyes 6.0, the
screen reading software that provides computer access to those who are
blind or visually impaired.  With the release of the new version of
Window-Eyes, blind consumers now have unparalleled access to Word, Excel,
PowerPoint, and Outlook in Microsoft Office 2000, XP, 2003 and the new
Microsoft Office 2007.  GW Micro has also made history by making the
Outlook Calendar fully accessible.

"We continue to innovate the latest screen reading technology," said Doug
Geoffray, VP of Product Development and Support.  "Window-Eyes has raised
the bar yet again, and now provides better support for the Microsoft Office
Suite, including Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and Outlook, over any other
screen reader in the world."

Window-Eyes was the first screen reader to offer support for Microsoft
Office 2007 when the first public beta of Window-Eyes 6.0 was released.
"When we released the public beta, it unleashed a whole new array of
technology that has never before been seen in the screen reading industry,"
said Geoffray.  "We released full support for Internet Explorer 7, Mozilla
Firefox 2, Office 2007, and the Outlook Calendar, among other things.
These are crucial applications for any blind person in an employment
situation, and Window-Eyes was the first to deliver them."

GW Micro has proclaimed for years that its Window-Eyes software is the most
stable screen reading software on the market, which is why it always enters
a public beta cycle before the full release of a new version.  "Our
philosophy has always been that if your screen reader causes your computer
to crash, it's not just an inconvenience, it's unacceptable.  For this
reason, we always have a public beta, unlike some of our competitors," said
Geoffray.  "While the public beta cycle delays the final release of
Window-Eyes, it is more important to us to have a quality product than to
put out software that doesn't work correctly, which causes large problems
for blind consumers."

"Lots of people ask us how we decide what to include in each version," said
Dan Weirich, VP of Sales and Engineering.  "We get lots of feedback from
our customers, and then implement those solutions.  The largest problem we
have found over the last year is that most businesses are using Outlook as
the primary way to schedule meetings and other appointments.  Since the
Outlook Calendar has traditionally been inaccessible to blind consumers, we
decided that something must be done as soon as possible to make it
accessible."  When asked about Windows Vista, Weirich said, "All customers
who purchase 6.0 will be entitled to receive an additional software upgrade
that will enable Window-Eyes to work on Windows Vista.  In fact, we have
been the only screen reader that Microsoft has been demonstrating when they
give public demonstrations of Windows Vista, as we continue to raise the
bar for screen readers."

GW Micro introduces the following new features of Window-Eyes 6.0:


  a.. Microsoft PowerPoint
  b.. Outlook Calendar - Provides user with full access to the Outlook
Calendar
  c.. Outlook/Outlook Express Email - Hot keys allow the user to read and
access all mail fields, including attachments
