Greetings,
It is messages like this one and many many other messages on several lists
that name serious problems that are important issues to be fixed. i am
well aware that some think that there is too much criticism of the new JAWs
version 331.35. At least, that new version did try to break new ground,
give us unequaled ability to surf the web and do so with greater ease and
speed. But there were also many issues raised during the beta testing
that were not "yet' addressed. I believe I recall reading on October 17 and
18 promises of a patch to fix some of these problems.
Well, as one who can envision the many benefits ofthis version 331.35 but as
one who has experienced unneccessary lock ups and silent speech also, I
eagerly await that famous patch.
Have a great day.
