Hi David,
Interesting. VisioVoice sounds like a nice expansion to VoiceOver.
Has anyone used this? I may try out the demo at some point. The
multi-lingual support is the most impressive, and my girlfriend will
definitely be interested in it for that. *grin* I love the ability to
make text files to iPod ready iTunes format as well, although I'm not
sure those two options along are worth the $250 price tag. I got a
program to do to the text to audio conversion for free under Windows,
and am sure eventually I'll find another, similarly free solution
under Mac OSX. Still, seems like a nice package.

On the schedule I saw VoiceOver presentation and Mac osx
accessibility presentation. I attended the latter but had a
conflict with the former. VO was touched upon though and I used it
during the accessability lab.
There was also a set of presentations by assistiveware dealing with
their line of access products for the Mac. I provided a brief
demonstration of Visiovoice with VO and the IvoxInfovox voices onn
Saturday morning.
I agree, it was not an exciting conference for me but then I have
nothing to compare it too. Several people though said that it was
the best CSun in years.
You can learn more about assistiveware products at:

out, theyy are worth a look.
I am not employyed by assistive ware.
Thanks!

There were a couple of presentations on VoiceOver. Perhaps,
three, but I'm not sure. Also, a few folks from Apple were
wandering about. Unfortunately, even though it was not an overly
exciting show, I didn't have much time to attend presentations or
venture far from my booth.
