Here's what is on the web site, under features and enhancements:

Research It can be launched from the INSERT+F2 JAWS Manager dialog. From 
here you can pick from the current list of options including Wikipedia, 
Wiktionary, Top News Stories, NFL Scores, MLB Scores, and more to come soon. 
You can choose what your primary look up will be as the JAWS default setting 
or in any individual application and then use the JAWS hot keys 
INSERT+WINDOWS Key+R or INSERT+CTRL+WINDOWS Key+R to activate Research It on 
the fly. As long as you have an Internet connection, just place the active 
cursor on any word or selected phrase on the screen and ask Research It to 
look it up. In 2 or 3 seconds, your results display in the Virtual Viewer 
the same way you get help messages from INSERT F1 queries. When you finish 
reading, press ESC and you are back in your application and never even 
needed to open your browser. For sports results, you will, by default, get 
today's schedule or game results if it has been played. If you want the 
results from a different day, just type the date from where ever you are on 
your computer or current application, move the cursor to it, and start the 
look up.

I recommend you read through all this, it's interesting.
