Hank,
Mouse keys is the numpad when activated through universal access
prefs in system prefs. It has a shortcut key to turn it on and
off and acts sort of like the Jaws cursor or the mouse cursor in
window eyes. There is a counterpart callled mouse keys in windows
except I've not seen it work all that well with speech.
As for drag and drop, that is something I am going to determine but
I have to work out a path for the eexercise since there is not much
indication through speech as to what is draggable and where it can
be dropped.

I like visiovoice. I use it with my visually impaired students
andd provide demonstrations of it. I also like to use it with
mouse keys because the talking interface is quite robust.

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:
http://www.assistiveware.com
we've discussed them here before but incase you haven't checked
them 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.
