Hi, That's unfortunately true. Here in the U.S. most organizations and government agencies only recognize Freedom Scientific's products in any official copacity. However, with free and open source solutions like NVDA out there one can choose to pass on Jaws and choose to use NVDA instead. If they want a good professional screen reader GW Micro has a payment plan for Window-Eyes that is quite affordable on a fixed income. I think all and all the days of Jaws are numbered. Sooner or later their customers will see Freedom Scientific for the crooks they are and walk away. There is no need to continue putting money in Freedom Scientific's pockets if they continue with their lawsuit crazy mentality. It just goes to prove what kind of people we are dealing with.
