Chris, it may well be that your local council will pay your talking book subscription for you, mine do. Cheers Alex -----Original Message----- From: jaws-uk-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:jaws-uk-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of chris hallsworth Sent: 25 April 2010 12:33 To: jaws-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [jaws-uk] Re: FS Reader Thanks for this. I will look into this in the future. I was just interested in having magazines in DAISY format that's all, like Access I.T., rather than paying out a subscription for talking books which I may otherwise not listen to. Just my thoughts.
