Jaws is the software package or screan reader that works with many voice
synthisizers such as, deck talk and elequence.  It will even work with the
old artic board.  I still have one with dos 4.2.  That thing hasn't worked
since 94.  sure would like to get rid of it!

The important word here is: "think".  All of us have our favorite speech
synth, and Heaven help the person who will try to say another is better.
<LOL>  Personally, I would gladly use something else besides the Keynote
speech on the BrailleNote, but I do realize this is a major selling point
for the HW products.  BTW, Sarai, I didn't realize Jaws was a speech
synthesizer rather than a screen reader.

I think its ten times better, especially using it with foreign
languages.

 the speech on the BN is not bad, but I do not think you can compare it
with 
eloquence.
