Personally I think these updates are some of the best. I think the forms mode changes, will make a big difference, especially to those who receive sighted assistance from work colleagues.
I love the RealSpeak voices, and it has been a shame that their responsiveness hasn't been adequate enough to use all the time.
I would say the changes from v8 to 9 were only as significant as the upcoming updates.

Hi all: I am surprised that FS is releasing this version is v10, as the way I see it, the changes are nice and very useful but in my opinion not significant enough to jump to a whole new version. I recall in many previous versions FS has included more break throughs and features. I am not trying to compare products here by any means, but I want to use the example of GwMicro upgrade path from Window Eyes 6.1 to 7.0 where the upgrade has introduced a significant break through for their product. If I did not have an SMA already, I would have probably waited to another version before I pay to upgrade from v9.0 to v10.00. I don't mean this as a negative criticism but rather as a feedback from a long time euser of Jaws, in fact my serial number is a four digit one.Cheers, kamalThis is meant as a positive criticiswiated -- JFW related links: JFW homepage: http://www.freedomscientific.com/Scripting mailing list: http://lists.the-jdh.com/listinfo.cgi/scriptography-the-jdh.comJFW List instructions: To post a message to the list, send it to jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxxTo unsubscribe from this mailing list, send a message to jfw-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the word unsubscribe in the subject line.Archives located at: //www.freelists.org/archives/jfwIf you have any concerns about the list, post received from the list, or the way the list is being run, do not post them to the list.
