Hi, I purchased a nice program called talking clock by blindsoftware.com. It costs $15 but it's jaws accesssible and very simple to use. You can set reminders and an alarm or whatever sound you choose will go off at the time of your reminder so you can set it to go off say a day before an appointment.

Rhonda ----- Original Message ----- From: "Paul Shallbetter" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Monday, January 07, 2008 10:49 AM Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] accessible reminder web sites and program Hey all, From the description on the website, it looks like Calendar Magic is serious overkill. Frankly, I don't need to know what day it is under the Tibetan calendar <rolling eyes> I also wonder how well it works with JAWS, considering that there are numerous options for changing colors, etc. within the software. I have used the crude but effective Talking Toolbox from http://www.braillesuperstore.com for months. It features numerous reminder functions, alarm clocks and the like. No, it's not free, and I seldom use any of the other tools in the box (basic word processor, e-mail), but as a calendar I have not found anything easier to use. Just my opinion.
