I, as a mac user, haven’t been so involved with Windows affairs. But I do remember my years of using Windows, first with Window-eyes, then with NVDA. I truly hope something can be done about FS, and indeed all of the selfish companies that believe than they
Re: Freedom Scientific Gets a New CEO
Hi.Yes, I agree. Include Voiceover in that too.If apple can provide VOiceOver with OS X and IOS for no additional cost and it still works as good as it does then there is no reason these other companies cant. I think its just greed.URL:

Well I was finally able to listen to that episode of FSCast. It does sound like Mr. Blake has some interesting experiences, and he certainly sounded sincere. As usual, Jonathan did a stellar job with the interview.URL:

Re: Freedom Scientific Gets a New CEO
I heard a bit about this on a recent episode of the Serotalk podcast. Now theres a company that gets it right. Or I guess theyre a corporation, I dont really know the difference. But anyway, Serotek has always been in business not for the money but for the

I heard many opinions from companies in Germany, for example HandyTech, who stopped working with FST. The Jaws lite-versoin costs 1200 Euros in Germany, while in America, it costs $900.URL: http://forum.audiogames.net/viewtopic.php?pid=151018#p151018

Re: Freedom Scientific Gets a New CEO
Except that Apple still has VoiceOver and from my own experiences, it trumps the Shark by a long shot. Granted Ive only experienced VO firstand on an IOS deice but Ive ehard demos ofit on actual machines and it didnt sound as though those using it were
Re: Freedom Scientific Gets a New CEO
@phil: you are joking, but look at announced jaws 15 new features: they were clearly inspired by what VO does on iphone to implement their new tactile interface for Windows 8 smartphones and tablets. Except that, of course, they have still long way to catch

Re: Freedom Scientific Gets a New CEO
Yeah, NVDA is pretty much replacing Jaws, and even if not quite there now, they have a lot of freelance programmers working with Python, free add ons, and will quickly impliment the rest of the features and crack the rest of the voices for free download.Its

Re: Freedom Scientific Gets a New CEO
LOL. Even when Joke Rehab acknowledges the existence of things like NVDA or VoiceOver they insist that it couldnt possibly be as good as the Shark. Ok, JAWS was decent back when it was for DOS and maybe a few earlier versions of Winblows, but honestly I

Re: Freedom Scientific Gets a New CEO
So I finished the podcast, and I still cant get over the jarring incongruity of a CEO who honestly believes that the answer to software patents is to license them properly, as opposed to just acknowledging that theyre simply wrong, while at the same time

Hi.Yes, I agree fully with Thomas Ward.There is no need for any of these companies to continue anymore. None of them, gw, Freedom Scientific, Dolphin something I think, etc.We have NVDA for windows, VoiceOver for the Mac and Orca for Linux. I havnt played
Freedom Scientific Gets a New CEO
If you listen to FSCast episode 82, you get to hear the new CEO of FS and his thoughts on the company.I dont like the patent/IPR connection, but he actually sounds pretty reasonable. He wants the company to be more open and team-spirited, which is probably good
