Oh, I reread your post, and I see it is. Never mind on the identity
question.

Frances,
Is this the same company that makes the music program we've been discussing
(I think that's been on this list, not the Jaws Lite list, anyway; I don't
always check? Also, as a dictionary, does it resemble a dictionary like the
top of the line American Heritage or Webster's in attending to etymology and
giving usage examples, or is it more at the level of a "collegiate" style
dictionary (I've never actually understood the assumption that college
students, who are supposed to be dedicated to curious learning about
everything for a time, including language, need a dictionary seemingly
better suited to a junior high school kid)?
thanks.

Pranav,
The Ultimate Talking Dictionary is really nice. It is from Premier
Assistive Technology, and costs $39.95 USD. Here'e the link for details:
http://www.premier-programming.com/UTD/utd.htm. I got one and it is quite
nice. It is stand-alone, meaning it installs on your computr and you can
use it whenever you need it.
Francis
