from reading around, on the mozilla site, both the compeeting screen readers 
will support firefox. Go ahead, look it up, the info you need is on the mozilla 
accessibility website. Jaws 7.0 will fully support Mozilla firefox. Finnally, 
an alternative browser.

  Hello Everyone:

  My name is Beto Escobar III, LMSW, and I just now read-up, on the JFW 
newsletter, that JAWS 7.0 will be premiered in Austin, Texas on September 28, 
2005.  As a result of me living in close proximity to Austin, Texas, I have 
signed-up to attend the event.  With this in mind, I have a question (s) for 
the list serve as well as all of the beta testers!  

  JAWS 6.0, and it's update .2 was released earlier this year.  What is going 
on that Freedom Scientific is releasing 7.0-- a **very major** release this 
year as well?  Has something like this been done previously?  What I mean is to 
have two major releases of JAWS in one year-- approximately within a six month 
time span?  The only rationale I can come up with is that Microsoft is 
releasing its new version of Windows soon?  Does anybody know if this is true?  
I am eager to hear everyone's thoughts on this matter?
