Um this isn't free is it?

I'm just curious as when it said it's integrated with Vista.

Does this mean it does integrate or it's there after the install?

Serotek Announces Vista-Ready Product Line



Assistive Technology Products Work With Vista

For Accessibility Right Out of the Box



Las Vegas, Nev. - January 11, 2007 - Serotek Corporation, the leading

technology
trade event taking place this week in Las Vegas.

This is not a beta; any current FreedomBox user or anyone with Vista can
download the software from the company's web site www.freedombox.info
<http://www.freedombox.info/> .

Blind and visually impaired Information Technology managers who are =
testing
Vista for their organizations can now use Serotek's Key to Freedom to
conduct the testing. Key to Freedom features Fonix DECtalk =
text-to-speech
(TTS). Fonix DECtalk "speaks" screen content to the user in clear,
understandable TTS voices in multiple languages.

legal downloading of online music for the first time without buying
customized computer scripts.

Serotek products also work with Windows Vista Media Center and the new =
Aero
Glass interface for electronic mail, right out of the box, without =
requiring
settings changes or software installations required by other screen =
readers.

"When we say we work with Vista, we mean across the board - remote =
control
and all," said Mike Calvo, CEO, Serotek Corporation, "so the blind can =
use
the electronic program guide on cable television and record programs =
just
like the mainstream using Windows Media Center."
