PR: KeyStrokes(R) 3.5 for Mac OS X boosts word prediction, adds new localizations, and more Amsterdam - 16 February 2005 - AssistiveWare today announced the release of version 3.5 of KeyStrokes(R), its award-winning on-screen keyboard with advanced PolyPredix(TM) multilingual word prediction for Mac OS X. KeyStrokes 3.5 offers many unique, time and effort saving features allowing significantly easier and faster typing. The new version provides word prediction for the hardware keyboard, it's on-screen keyboard and for soon to be released SwitchXS 1.7. It can be used with a keyboard, mouse, trackball, head pointer, touch screen, or other mouse emulator to type into just about any Mac OS X or Classic application. Version 3.5 represents a major update with the following key new features: - Word prediction efficiency has improved by 10 to 40%, now allowing a total effort reduction of up to 70%. - Word prediction now works for the hardware keyboard to accommodate one finger typists. - Word prediction will also work for soon to be released SwitchXS 1.7, giving switch users access to the same great word prediction. - Adds German, Italian, Dutch and Norwegian translations. - Adds Norwegian pre-built word prediction dictionary (US and UK English, French, German, Dutch and Italian were already available). - And, many smaller improvements... KeyStrokes 3.5 rapidly adapts its prediction to the user's vocabulary and also learns "as you type" or from text files. The learning and prediction process is entirely transparent to the user and learned text can even be spell-checked automatically to prevent learning typos. Advanced users can control many of the processes and use the extremely powerful dictionary editor to streamline user dictionaries or even design dictionaries for additional languages or dialects. KeyStrokes 3.5 is the only fully-functional on-screen keyboard available for Mac OS X. With its system-wide, dwell-based typing and clicking, multiple keyboard models, adjustable key spacing and fonts, speech feedback, SmartTransparency(TM), and much more, KeyStrokes 3.5 is a real powerhouse. And yet, it is very easy to use and does not require any special configuration to profit fully from its advanced features. KeyStrokes 3.5 is available in English, French, German, Italian, Norwegian, and Dutch. The suggested retail price is US$ 299 or Euro 249 (excl. VAT). Users of any other on-screen keyboard can upgrade to KeyStrokes 3.5 for US$ 249 or Euro 199 (excl. VAT).
