You can simply pay for the upgrade and not use your sma if you like. I have
done this in past upgrades when there weren't as many huge things such as
Daisy players being installed.
Its quite a bit more expensive to do it this way which is why Humanware
instituted the Sma process in the first place.

Cindy,
The next major release is going to be KeySoft 7.2. And, no, I do not
believe you are able to skip upgrades, you must go sequentially, so if you
are wanting the major release after KeySoft 7.2, you will need to purchase
another SMA, and use your current count for 7.2, in order to be able to
upgrade to future versions of KeySoft.
Happy KeySofting
Kevin

If I only have one SMA count left, can I skip this upgrade and use it on
the next major upgrade?

KEYSOFT 7.2 IS COMING! HumanWare will be releasing KeySoft
7.2 early in the
4th quarter of 2006, making your BrailleNote or VoiceNote
even more useful
and efficient.
Whether you have a BrailleNote or VoiceNote mPower, a
BrailleNote PK, or a
BrailleNote or VoiceNote Classic, there is a version of
KeySoft 7.2 that
will be available for you. KeySoft 7.2 takes one count from
your Software
Maintenance Agreement (SMA). An SMA allows you to receive two major
versions of KeySoft for the price of one. Remember, an SMA
can only be used
for a version of KeySoft if it is purchased prior to the
release of the
software concerned. So if you are not yet an SMA holder,
ensure you get the
best deal on KeySoft 7.2 by purchasing your SMA now. Contact
HumanWare or
your local dealer for KeySoft 7.2 pricing. What's in KeySoft 7.2?
Working with Files Is Easier (available on all models)
KeySoft allows extensive manipulation of files from any file
list. Anywhere
you can see a list of files, you can copy, erase, move,
protect, unprotect
and rename a file. Now, it is possible to mark files for
action. Move
through a list of files, mark those files that you need to
take action on,
and the file manipulation commands can be applied to the
group of files.
Now, when you look through a file list using the Directory
option in File
Manager, pressing ENTER on any file will launch its
associated application.
Pressing ENTER on an mp3 file for example will immediately
cause it to start
playing in the Media Player. In any file list, it is now
easier to get it
sorted. You can still sort files alphabetically as you have
always done,
however you can now also sort by date and by size. Sorting
by size is a
great way of finding those pesky large files that are
consuming FLASH Disk
space. Sorting by date makes it easier to trace the progress
of a project
whose files are contained in their own folder. e-mail
Signatures (available
on all models) KeySoft 7.2 adds the ability to set up two e-mail
signatures. Configure an e-mail signature for messages you
generate, and
another for messages you forward or reply to. You can see
the text of the
signature right in the body of any e-mail message you create.
Statistics
Support in the Calculator (available on all models) KeySoft
7.2 offers
intuitive, powerful statistical functions in KeyPlus. Create
data sets
within the Calculator using a special data entry mode. Enter
your data into
a KeyWord document, and paste it into data entry mode from
the clipboard.
Import data sets from many common applications. Save data
sets for later
use, and export them for use by other applications. Perform
a wide range of
statistical functions on a data set using an intuitive
KeySoft menu, or with
hotkeys. DAISY Support (available on BrailleNote and
VoiceNote mPower, and
BrailleNote PK) Your BrailleNote or VoiceNote is about to become your
digital book player. HumanWare is the world leader in DAISY playback
technology, through our Victor Reader products. Now, we have
incorporated
Victor Reader technology right into KeySoft. Listen to DAISY
audio books,
with the flexibility to speed up and slow down the narration
and change the
tone of the audio. Set bookmarks, create text notes, and
jump to any time
in the book. Text only DAISY books are instantly translated into your
preferred grade of Braille. With books that offer both text
and audio, you
have the best of both worlds. Choose to read in Braille for
detailed study,
and let the narrator read to you when it suits. Move through DAISY
elements, or use the familiar KeySoft sentence and paragraph
navigation
commands in text DAISY books if you prefer. Get ready!
Make sure you have a current Software Maintenance Agreement so you can
download your copy of KeySoft 7.2 when it is released.
KeySoft 7.2 from
HumanWare will change the way you work, learn and play.
