Hello all,
 
> We have released the update this afternoon. You should be able to locate
> it now if you use Check for Updates. Here is what it includes:
 
 
> Enhancements in JAWS 11.0.746 (November 2009)
 
 
> The following is a list of items addressed or added between the final
> JAWS 11.0.734 release and the JAWS 11.0.746 posting. All enhancements
> since the initial public beta release are included in this release.

> * This release resolves an issue with new Windows 7 installations
> where JAWS would request that you install the mirror driver after using
> applications such as iTunes 9.0.2 or Roxio Creator 2010. This has now
> been resolved for JAWS 11. If you experience this issue with JAWS 10 or
> MAGic 11 with Windows 7, download the 64- or 32-bit Video Intercept
> <http://www.freedomscientific.com/downloads/jaws/JAWS-whats-new.asp#Vide
> oIntercept>  as described earlier on this page. 
 
> The following lookup sources have been added to the JAWS Research It
> feature. Remember that you can quickly access lookup sources using the
> INSERT+SPACEBAR, R keystroke.
 
> * Amazon Product Search: Displays search results from
> Amazon.com(r) for the word or item entered in the edit field. Results
> appear as links followed by price and shipping information. 
> * Bookshare(tm) Book Search: Displays search results from
> Bookshare.org based on an author's name, a book's ISBN number, or words
> found in a book title or book description. If a match is found, the
> result appears as a link containing the author, title, and copyright
> date. 
> * Health Search on WebMD: Provides search results from the Web
> site WebMD(r) for the words entered in the lookup edit field or located
> at the current cursor position in a document or Web page. If a match is
> found, results appear as links followed by a brief synopsis. 
> * Stock Quotes: Displays current and up to 52-week historical
> financial information for the stock symbol entered in the edit field or
> selected from a document, spreadsheet, or Web page. 
> * Time Search: Displays the current time and time zone for any
> location typed into the edit field. Note: Be specific when entering a
> location since one name may represent multiple cities. For example, if
> you only type London into the edit field, you will receive time results
> for London, England, U.K., London, Ontario, Canada, and London,
> Arkansas, U.S.A. 
> * UPS Tracking: Returns progress and delivery status information
> for a valid UPS(tm) tracking number. 
> * People Search: Allows you to search for individuals using their
> first and last name, street name (optional), and location. Use
> semicolons to separate search terms, for example, John Smith; Main
> Street; St. Petersburg, Florida. Always use a comma to separate the city
> and state or province location. Note: Currently, the results that appear
> in the Virtual Viewer are limited to the first 10 items provided by the
> Web site 411.com. This site only displays 10 items per page. If the
> individual does not appear in your initial search results, try refining
> your search input by including a street name.
