i am finding 5.1 very stavle. the crashing and sluggishness i was
experiencing before aren't happening now. i haven't had any trouble with it
yet and the merge went very smooth. i like being asked and having that taken
care of during the install. over all very nice.

First of all, I am using a braill ex braille display and now the display
starts and works like it should. You used have to unplug and plug the
display when you started jaws and I am happy to report that problem is
fixed. Things are a little different with outlook. Now when you are
looking at inbox and you want to look at deleted messages you go into view
and now you have to inter on deleted messages and then inter on ok. You
didn't have to do that before. No big deal.
> The new key system that freedom scientific is trying to introduce, no big
deal. You have 3 keys. Use them sparingly. Use the old jaws keys and old
versions of jaws when you work on computers for friends and family. That
will give you 5 keys, and don't play stupid, I am sure that the majority of
us all know how to create more key disks, that is part of the reason FS is
going to the new key system.
> Remote access- This is the big one that a lot of us are waiting for
and have been for quite some time. We must be patient. It is really hard
for me to be patient when my job and my lively hood are riding on this one.
was supposed to be out since the beginning of this year and then part of 5.1
but it isn't. Now part of 5.2, or maybe something extra to buy or not.
Does anyone really know? Anyway, all and all 5.1 didn't really address many
issues that were of great concern to me. Internet explorer, outlook, excel,
all the other programs that it fixed, no big deal. Remote access is the big
one and I have to have it, hope it is really soon and hope we get some
official word from some one official. Also, I am really curious to see what
6.0 will address.
