I'm wondering if the $75 convention price for jowls is what current SMA HOLDERS OF Window-Eyes will be offered in the 2nd quarter when Eric Damron (I think, per previous post) makes some sort of announcement. I don't want to switch,and I can't afford the big bucks for jowls, but $75 would be tolerable to have a screen reader that will be updated and improved.

and, speaking of the potential big announcement from VFO, maybe they will be changing the name of the screen reader to show a merge of Window Eyes and jaws.

Taking a bite out of the competition...

Announcing: Eye Teeth - Combining the most stable customizable and secure screen reader with the best financially backed one.

Regarding the $75 deal, an acquaintance attended the NFB convention in 2015 when they were offering that same deal. So my friend went to the Freedom suite and handed the service rep his phone, at which time I gave him my info and purchased Jaws. Remember, this was 2015, and I seem to recall that they refused to do it for third parties in 2016.

A number of us prioritise and make personal budgets.

A number of people go to their agencies.

Although not true in my case: I do know of employers who have provided site
licenses.

If the tools don't allow a person to do his/her job, then there is no job
for that person and no money anyway.

Hi Vaughan,

I sincerely hope that Jaws really works for you.
You have to go with what works. (smile)

Good luck,

Rod

Subject: Window-Eyes has gone from my employer's computer

Greetings everyone.

Over the weekend, I switched to JFW, and it has come as something of a shock

to realise that Window-eyes is no longer the preferred screen reader.

Yesterday it came off my workstation at work.

JFW meets more of my work requirements than does Window-Eyes. The braille
support with the Focus line of displays is far better than the support I
could get from Window-eyes.

JFW's extensive help and other training material is for me quite daunting,
but I'll get used to it.

Web browsing at close to JFW default settings gives more information
regarding elements and content.

Outlook is keeping track of open messages more reliably.



Yesterday at work: Window-Eyes crashed four times in three hours.  To be
more accurate: other apps interacting with Window-Eyes crashed, and Outlook
was one of the prime culprits.
The corporate network gets grumpy with respect to some of the Window-eyes
apps.  I am sure that it probably also does with JFW's scripts.


So: it is sad to see an old friend go, but when the tools of the trade no longer do what is required, hard decisions have to be made with respect to
those tools.

Vaughan.
