As I understand it GW Micro would like to provide all the same features
in GW Connect that the regular Skype client has, but they can't do that
unless and until Microsoft or Skype updates the development utility that
GW used to develop Connect. That includes video calling and the ability
to sign into Skype with Windows Live accounts.
But thou must!

Dear GW Micro Staff,
After I was using the WE8.2 since it was released, I wish to report
that I am very happy with this latest release. Indeed it is a
wonderful piece of work.
For the future, I wish that GW Micro provide better support for the
Open Office and Liber Office so we the blind users will have more
choice as regarding office packeges.
Another thing that I wish to see (even if we have to pay small fee for
it), is a bootable DVD of Windows with Window-eyes integrated on it so
totally blind people can make pc trouble shooting orother
administrative tasks such as windows password reset possible. I have
in mind something similar to the Vinux OS CD but obviously with
Window-eyes, see: http://vinuxproject.org/
One question that I would like to ask is: Since Microsoft bought
Skype, GW Micro tried to put some pressure on Microsoft to improve the
Skype interface accessibility? I know that there is the GW Connect,
which I really like it, but GW Connect does not provide Video Support,
which it is very unfortunate.
I use the WE with many different programs eg: excel, powerpointms-word
and many others, and WE with every new version theaccessibility always
improve.
More than that, I wish to congratulate GW Micro programmers for their
hard work, because to wrote all those lines of programming code is not
a joke.
Keep it up.
Kind regards,
Michael Micallef
