Hi Mary and all, One of the joys of being a self-styled user support consultant is that I get to play with some things like this for free. I've scooped up all the docs there are and I'll be putting together some podcasts on it later on in the month. You'll be able to get them from my website when they come out, and I'll be toting them shamelessly as soon as they hit the site.
I saw a brief demo of the solo at tech aids fair last spring and it seemed to be all that. I have rather high hopes for the mac version. It really is too bad about the price tag, but I'll be addressing that in the podcast. unless that is , I get the thing and hook it up and it turns out to be a piece of crap.
