hi, Apart from JAWS and Magic www.freedomscientific.com as we all
know, we have open source screen readers such as NVDA. especially
for office usage i recommend Perl or ZoomX for Faster scanning or a
general scanner with some OCR Software's like, Fine Reader, Kurzweil
or Open Book. A devise called pen Friend is highly recommended for
knowing the content in the Disks and files using label recording tags.
accessible voice recorders like Plextalk, Victor, Angel Daisy
Recorders, Buddy players and voice recorders over Mobiles would be of
grate help for simple note taking and voice recording.
coming to low vision part, different magnifiers depending on your
extent of vision may be used for convenient reading based on the
advise of an eye specialist. these vary in magnification. have a check
on this links:
