Ciao a tutti,

Vi giro questa mail che annuncia il rilascio di "visio voice" per snow-leopard.


Press release: VisioVoice 1.2 enhances access to Snow Leopard for vision 
impaired Mac users


Amsterdam - 27 August 2009 - AssistiveWare(R) today announced the release of 
VisioVoice(R) 1.2. VisioVoice enhances access to Mac OS X for people with 
vision impairments through a system-wide talking interface and typing echo, 
text and image zoom windows, large cursors as well as a document and selection 
reader. VisioVoice includes a license for the natural sounding Infovox iVox 
voices for one language of choice. VisioVoice can also convert text, Word, PDF, 
HTML and RTF documents to audio files and iPod and iPhone-ready audiobooks. 
VisioVoice offers features that are complimentary to Apple's excellent 
VoiceOver screen reader and is primarily intended for those users that prefer 
mouse-based access to their computer over full-keyboard access.


VisioVoice 1.2 new and improved features:


* Full Snow Leopard compatibility


* Full compatibility with Safari 4


* Compatibility with Infovox iVox 2.0 (to be available as public beta soon), 
including non-Roman languages


* Enhanced iTunes export with choice of encoder and background import in iTunes


* Speak selection now also works in floating windows such as the one used by 
Help Viewer


* Improved performance and lower CPU use


* Fixes some bugs including one with the Help menu in Leopard


While VisioVoice provides as much support as is technically possible for 
applications that do not support Apple's accessibility API, best results can be 
expected when using VisioVoice with accessible applications such as TextEdit, 
Safari, iChat and others.


VisioVoice is a Universal Binary and can be used on PowerPC and Intel Macs 
running Mac OS X 10.4 or later. VisioVoice is localized in English, French, 
Dutch and Japanese. VisioVoice includes a license for Infovox iVox for natural 
sounding voices in one language of choice. Voices are available for the 
following languages on Mac OS X 10.4 and later: American English, British 
English, American Spanish, Canadian French, French, German, Italian, Dutch, 
Flemish, Spanish, Portuguese, Brazilian Portuguese, Danish, Norwegian, Finnish 
and Swedish. The following languages require Mac OS X 10.5 and later: Arabic, 
Turkish, Czech, Greek, Russian and Polish.


Pricing for VisioVoice is 249 Euro/USD excluding VAT. Version 1.2 is a free and 
recommended upgrade for existing users.


For more information, a fully-functional downloadable demo and to listen to 
samples of the voices please consult the product page:

Come tutti saprete VO di SnowLeoaprd introdurra dei nuovi modi di
interagire con il vostro Mac, questi nuovi modi di interazione chiamti
Gesture, necessiteranno di una trackpad multitouch. La trackpad
Multitouch allo stato attuale delle cose è presente solo sui macbook e
macbook pro unibody, ed anche sul macbook air. La trackpad Multitouch
non è presente sul macbook bianco in policarbonato,ancora a listino
Apple, consiglio a tutti quelli che si apprestano ad acquistare un mac
di aquistare un portatile con trackpad e di lasciare perdere i modelli
desktop oppure portatili usati delle serie non unibody. Speriamo che
Apple o qualche produttore di terze parti si decidano a
commercializzare una trackpad multitouch standalone che possa essere
collegata a qualsiasi Mac.
