Hi Brian, Yes, I forgot that one, thanks. It's a cool feature indeed. And let's not forget System Access of course, if you want quick access to a PC with no screen reader. And no DCM required of course. All the best -- Computer Room Services: the long cane for blind computer users.

Hi Following on from Steve's excellent point, there are some other things you can now do with audio described movies. You can move forward and back through the movie, obviously start and stop it, and set a bookmark. This is a great feature. The idea is you set a bookmark, then you get sent an e-mail message containing a hyperlink. When you want to go back to the bookmark, simply activate the link, and you are there. Another use for this is so that you can share bookmarks with friends if you want them to hear your favourite part of a movie. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Steve Nutt" <steve@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Tuesday, June 21, 2005 12:14 PM Subject: [access-uk] Re: Freedombox? > Hi Sunil, > > The other really good feature of Freedom Box is the ability to listen > to audio described movies from the States.
