Dear David, thanks for this information - very helpful for I hope not too distant future. By the way, and slightly off topic, what do people on the list use in terms of mobile phones with mobile speak from code factory? Anybody using a smart phone without sight with this screen reader? What are your experiences? Please e-mail me off line not to clog the list up. I'm thinking of changing my mobile and using mobile speak as I don't think Apple's Iphone is going to be accessible soon.
