On your EU question, you aren't alone, but there aren't many. I've noticed
contributions from the Czech Republic, the Netherlands, Germany, and many from
the UK. This last makes sense, of course, because this is an English-language
forum. Someone wrote from Norway, but I don't believe that country opted to
join the EU. It would be good for more EU people to contribute. For one thing,
in several ways your consumer protection laws are stronger, which one day might
benefit all JAWS users. Numerous listers post from all around the Pacific Rim,
as well as South Africa and India.

Hello folks. yesterday at 11 here in Italy, I phoned the customer care service
of ING Direct, also called in Italian "conto arancio". As I asked info about
existing alternative methods for typing the pin code digits in a different way
rather than letting others clicking with the mouse, the employee forwarded me
the developers' answer. Being Java the system currently used for that web page,
it is impossible to convert digits into normal clickable buttons reachable by
pressing the B key or routing JAWS to PC cursor. In addition, she said: this
problem is well-known and I cannot exclude our web page creators will soon
modify the site's behaviour.
Well, here in Italy we have the OSI commission, whose members' task is to
collaborate together with the Blind Italian Union for observating Internet
sites. In these days I'll write an e-mail with this same speech to our Italian
yahoo groups: listabit, uictech and uic-helpexpress. If in your countries there
are people with same tasks of the Italian OSI commission, please try to contact
your local seat of ING Direct because it would be seriously important to solve
this problem worldwide.
To finish this message, I'd like to inform you that OSI commission members
every year leave by plane from Naples flying to Redmond for a meeting with
Microsoft, hoping in continuous JAWS improvements and enhancement.
Just a last question: am I the only one European user to write in this list?
Best regards
Stefano
