Can you send me the URL for the blind tech podcast? -----Original Message----- From: Talk [mailto:talk-bounces+skyt=shaw...@lists.window-eyes.com] On Behalf Of Brenda via Talk Sent: Friday, July 14, 2017 5:32 PM To: Window-Eyes Discussion List Subject: Window-Eyes as a trend setter anda question
Good evening list tonite I was surfing the Blind Tech Podcasts on my iPhone and came across a very depressing one dated May 26 where they were talking about in with the new and out with the old and how Window-eyes is no more. One of them stated words to the effect that VFO wanted everyone to use one screen reader. Also, mention was made of Jaws market share (my words) in the voc rehab community. I'm wondering if Window-Eyes will be the beginning of a trend where awesome technology gets gobbled up and lost in the future. I ask this because I'm toying with purchasing Sendero's Seeing Eye GPS-Xt app. Thing is, Sendero lists a bunch of companies they are somehow affiliated with - and one of those companies is Hims which used to be affiliated with GW. Hims used to make the book Sense, but that has changed into a product called, I think, Blaze, probably no more support for Book Sense although, like W-E, it is probably still in use. Hims-GW -- Window-eyes gone. could Hims-Sendero mean the Seeing Eye GPs XT app will be short lived? This may seem like an off topic question, but being Window-Eyes loyal users perhaps listers will best understand my concern and perhapsprovide me with some input. I'm a little leary of spending cash (even at the discounted convention price) only to find my chosen technology disappear or left unsupported in a few years. I look forward to any feedback on or off list.
