Alex, This is Joseph. It is already built-in. You can use the hot keys to move around. When you select that particular applicaiotn, KeyWord for example, when you switch applications,BN wil say something like, "resuming editing of something" whree something is the name of the document.

Hi all, With all this talk of extra appendages and such for performing multiple tasks, I figured it was a good time to throw out a suggestion I have been contemplating for months now. Why can't KeySoft, especially on the mPowers with 64 mb RAM, multi-task? Reformat the Task Menu to show status of all running tasks, for example: WordProcessor: opened file: (filename) Planner: calendar date: (date) Email: downloading message x of x Media Player: playing (filename) FM Radio: current station: (station info) And so on, showing all running tasks. ENTER switches to a task, and maybe SPACE with X switches between running and all programs in the menu, as it does between file types in KeyWord. With this multi-tasking, KeyMail could always be checking for new email, large files could download from the web in the background, and so on. Maybe one could open a document, tell the speech to read, and go to another document to take notes as the first document is read. This would be very advantageous for textbooks or writing reports from sources. Regular keystrokes control the document in which one is writing, and a certain keystroke activates the keyboard in the other document, but without switching to it. Maybe ENTER (instead of SPACE) with the switch between two files command. I hope to see this in the future, but let me know what you think.
