Then Freedom Scientific merged with Optelec and VSquared. So Freedom Scientific now has the ownership of Window-Eyes which is going to be fazed out.

In fact Jaws still will not work with Citrix when it is running in a virtual environment. Also, the pronounciation dictionaries were far more robust in WE. For instance, for those of us who sometimes dictate using Dragon Naturally Speaking, the wE dictionaries worked great for distinguishing homonyms .

I fully understand that WE did some things better than Jaws and Jaws does some thing better than WE but maybe a little mingling of the two would end up with a overall better screen reader. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This E-mail message is confidential, is intended only for the named recipients above and may contain information that is privileged, attorney work product or otherwise protected by applicable law.
