On the JAWS front I would recommend the upgrade to version 11.0 if possible.  
Some say they have got by with JAWS 10 but I really don't believe it is a long 
term goer with Windows 7.0.

On the broadband dongle front the most accessible I have come across is the 
Vodafone one (or at least the one I brought).  Other providers such as Three 
have similar although they don't seem to be as accessible.  This seems to be 
more a function of the software they come with (as they are mostly the same 
model used by different providers).  I brought mine as a pay as you go late 
summer last year for about £34.  The only thing about this I am not so sure 
about is Windows 7.0 the last time I tried mine with Windows 7.0 things did not 
seem to work that would be something to check out.

You may still even with the Vodafone effort need to use the JAWS cursor from 
time to time but it is far from being inaccessible.  Another route is using 
your mobile phone as a private wi-fi hotspot using its GSM connection using 
something like Joikuspot.  I am less familiar personally with that myself but I 
now others have used this setup with success.

Hi all,

I'm considering purchasing a new laptop, with Windows 7 Home Premium
and wish to know whether it works well with Jaws 10 (my SMA did not
extend to Jaws 11).

Also, I'm considering using mobile broadband. Does anyone know whether
the various dongles, on the market work OK with Jaws? I should imagine
that there should be no problems but I have no experience of mobile
broadband (other than on my mobile phone)!

Many thanks,

Kevin
