[Blind-Computing] Cobra
Hello all, I just want to tell you about an interesting new screen reader made by German company Baum. It's called Cobra (I know, it's named after a snake, hahaha). Joking aside, it contains lots of interesting and inovative features, such as the ability to capture the screen and perform on the fly OCR. No other screen reader I know does this. You can download it, and try it as a 30 minute reboot situation from www.baum.com. What's interesting though is that although a reboot is necessary to run the 30 minute demonstraiton again, Cobra actually will still speak, but will interrupt and remind you that the demo has expired. Again no other screen reader does this.

Works fine with me. Just note the dialogue box to extract the Cobra setup files is in German, but the installation itself is in English. So is Cobra itself.

Joking aside, it contains lots of interesting and inovative features, such as the ability to capture the screen and perform on the fly OCR. No other screen reader I know does this. You can download it, and try it as a 30 minute reboot situation from www.baum.com. What's interesting though is that although a reboot is necessary to run the 30 minute demonstraiton again, Cobra actually will still speak, but will interrupt and remind you that the demo has expired. Again no other screen reader does this.

Re: [Blind-Computing] NEW VERSION OF JAWS WORKS WELL WITHWINDOWSLIVEMAIL
I have Windows Live Mail and it finally works very well with the latest JAWS release! I have had many problems getting this to work with JAWS 11 so have been stuck using JAWS 10 until now. There seems to be something funky in my user account that only efgfects JAWS 11 with Windows Live Mail. It mostly works if I remove all of my personal and 3rd party scripts. The latest release does not seem effected by scripts as before with one exception, the Delete key will not reliably delete messages being read in a separate window.

[Blind-Computing] Blind Cool Tech podcast
Hi list, I was trying to download some podcasts from the Blind Cool Tech website but they wouldn't work. I wanted the 3 Microsoft Excel podcasts. I was able to download the recent Ipod 3 podcast from the site, so I don't know what is going on. Do they take the files off the server after a certain amount of time? I think these podcasts were done in 2006. I do a right click on the file name and hit enter on save target as and I get the getting file information dialogue box, and that's where it stops. Thanks for any assistance with this matter. AC TODAY: iPads for $123.74?
