Sorry, not quite. The Pro version costs about as much as JAWS always did in the
past. The home version SMA is about $120. There is also a special pricing for
the home version that you can get if your company buys enough of the Pro
version or if you go to the NFB National convention.
But still I have hard several times from VFO folks that the difference between
Pro and Home is licensing rather than anything technical.
I believe you can even get the remote client services for the home version
which was not true for v15.
Best wishes,
Jonathan Cohn
