Thanks for these urls. They largely vindicate my observations, and have a degree of credibility which I do not have.

Payig customers deserve some dialogue from AI Squared regarding the current and future status of Window-eyes. Serious allegations have been made: most notably that the industry is claiming that GW Micro is bankrupt. As a creditor, due to the fact that I have a SMA, I am entitled to request that I am refunded through a court process. How this works across international boundaries, and when in fact the amount is very small, is beyond my comprehension. Here is what I think. GW did not go bankrupt. But: it needed capital injections to contyinue the develoment of Window-eyes against seeming unsurmountable odds. AI Squared will treat Window-eyes has a side line to Zoomtext, and perhaps it would wish that these people who rely on synthetic speech and braille would just go away. Not for the first time I wonder where Mr Wu is - why has he not communicated with Window-eyes owners? Why does it seem that senior employees are not wishing to respond to the growing speculation that Window-eyes is no longer a truly serious contender in the screen reader market? Is their muzzling at the very top levels of AI Squared? Why is it - that if there is no longer to be a Window-eyes, we weren't told so that we are left to feed on our own speculation? Just so that we try and keep the discussion on a professional and civilised basis: Ppople are entitled to move out of their business ventures. Peopple are entitled to say "I don't want to do this anymore" but the customer relationship is with a new company, whose communications with us is appalling. One of the things which AI Squared inherited is GW Micro's customer good will. On the evidence to date - that has been trashed: it clearly was not part of the buy-out price? The old GW Micro had a proud reputation for first class customer support. This list reflected customer passion for Window-eyes. Services like ACB Radio used to enable GW representatives to explain developments with Window-eyes.. If users like me are generating damage on this list - imagine what is happening on social networking? And if the damage is widespread - what steps are being taken to put out the fire? Vaughan.
