Well, try out SA To Go and see how much you can do with it that you will have problems with with WE.

Well, Kevin, this would be fine if it weren't for the points that have already been made about the fact that other screen readers can do many things that WE can't and one of them is free!! There was a time when I felt able to defend WE to anyone on the grounds that I prefered it and that it would do what I wanted. At that time I didn't bother to have any other screen reader on my machine. Now however, I'm sorry to say, that I find myself using NVDA for some things that it does better than it's expensive counterpart. This is not good news!

Everything you say about program development applies equally to WE and the competition alike so, to me, doesn't really have any impact on the argument. At the end of the day the developers at Gwmicro are taking our money and not producing the goods and now that this thread has been going on for a while, I wonder if someone from Gwmicro would put some info out on this list re where they really are in solving some of the problems that have been highlighted.

Talk soon

Hi:
I think that sometimes, when we get frustrated about GW Micro taking a
seemingly long time to implement features that they have promised,
(I.E. a fix for Browse Mode), we forget that nobody really knows what
goes on behind the scenes at GW Micro.  We don't know how much
programming has to be done to implement the features that we want and
need, and how much testing needs to be done to make sure they function
properly.  Those of us who have experience with programming, know that
writing a program and testing it and then debugging it can be a very
long process, especially if the task which the program is supposed to
perform is a complex one.  So while we need to keep letting GW Micro
know what features are important to us in future versions of
Window-eyes, we need to be patient, no matter how difficult that might
be.
