How long does the SMA last? I know you can use it for 2 upgrades,
but is there a time limit in which you have to use it?

Tara,
An SMA allows you to receive 2 new software upgrades for a price
of one. If
you buy an SMA before 8.0 is released, then one of the SMA is
going to be
8.0, and the remaining SMA couhnt will be used for an upgrade
after 8.0. If
you buy it after 8.0 is released, then you'll get next two
upgrades.

Please don't.
Can someone please tell me the benefits of purchasing SMA for the
BN? You
said before build 8 comes, what if someone buys after 8 has
already come? I
am sorry if I should know.

Well, as for giving things up to purchase this equipment, you
should
maybe consider the fact that some, including myself already do.
I
have just purchased a new computer because the old one had too
many
problems and it was purchased by Voc Rehab. I AM saving to be
able to
get the sma for the BN before 8.0 comes out. I AM saving for
the upgrade
to the screenreader.
I AM saving for financial software that is accessible because I
am
going to have to give up the printed way. I AM saving for a new
mattress because the one I have is showing signs of breaking
down.
And add to that, I do not have a job. I am sick and tired of
people
saying "where there is a will, there is a way" when they have NO
idea
what they are talking about.
I apologize to the rest of the list that do not feel this way.
This
message just really, really, ticked me off because this person
has no
right to judge others. I know there are people that do have the
money
or could save the money that don't. However, these comments
should
not be sent to a public list. There are many people on this
list that
do save to buy things and they would purchase more things on
their own
if the prices of adaptive tech were lower. Adaptive tech has a
very
small market and the prices will tend to be higher as a result
of
lower demand.
This topic has totally strayed from positive or helpful comments
regarding HW products so I will no longer post regarding this
subject
and may in fact consider unsubscribing.

Hi Everyone;
It also might take up to much memory. I love the idea of having
a
dictionary that I can finally look up something on my own. I
will not
have to ask what a word means or how to spell something any
more.
I am actually glad that it is on a card so it will not clutter
up your
machine and it can be an option.
Those out there who are saying you can not afford to buy it,
first of
all, just because an agency bought your machine, does not limit
you
from upgrading it yourself. If you really want that dictionary,
bring
your lunch for a few months and see how much you can save, or
give up
something else.
My theory is;
Where there is a will,
There is a way.
Most likely I am going to treat myself to one for Christmas.
CAP bought my original machine, but with part of my home equity
loan,
I payed for the transplant.
Many people said to me, why don't you get the Government to pay
for
the transplant.
My response was, I am proud to be able to pay for it myself.
This is
the first time I have been able to pay for something I need and
not
depend on the government.

yeah but then you'd be paying even more for the device.

Hi guys,
Was wondering what you think of this. How about Humanware
produce a
device with the dictionary already on the device? For example,
they
could produce their own Talking Dictionary, with the Oxford
Concise
Dictionary as the main software for the device. Any thoughts on
this
would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
