Hi All:

What Shane is describing about the mouse sounds very much like a product that 
was out for a while about 10 years or so ago called Screen Rover.  The concept 
was you moved the mouse, and the screen rover would cause the mouse to guide 
your hand to something on the screen.  There was a speech output component to 
this as well.  While I thought it was an interesting product, I felt that using 
products like Window-Eyes was much more efficient.

With all of the keystrokes we have in Windows, there really isn't a need from 
my perspective for a person who is blind to know how to work the mouse.  This 
is not to disparage Shane's or anyone else's work.  What can't you do with the 
keyboard, including mouse equivalents like you have in Window-Eyes, that you 
can do with the mouse?

Thanks,
