Re: amazing JAWS offer for those in the UK!
lol yet again, find somebody in america and share the 90 bucks a year. that does bug me though. that plan isn't available anywhere outside america and you can bet your arse they'd charge much more through resellers. that is one of the problems i have with their business. the software is fantastic but if you don't live in the states you pay more and their payment plan isn't available. i tried to buy an SMA when i was living in florida and they wouldn't sell it to me because my copy of jaws was registered in the UK. 125 bucks for the SMA in florida. £180 in england. the exchange rate at the time was about 2 bucks to the pound. so go figure. basically i got screwed. they also spent a lot of money on a new building with views over tampa bay. they were very excited about that until we all pointed out that blind people want products and don't care if their guys get a nice view over the water front. but as much as i hate them as an enterty and the way they do things, they do get things done. as other people have mentioned in this thread, if you can get on with NVDA, knock yourself out but if you actually take the time to learn jaws instead of jumping on it, you will see how much more powerful it really is. i am not dismissing NVDA users at all, just pointing out that the hole point of this thread was to tell people there is a hell of a deal going on that they do once a year so why get snarky about it and turn it in to a fuck jaws war which happens every time there is any mention of a screen reader here.
