Hi friends,
Does anyone have any experience with e-book readers and accessibility?
It is not something that I have looked in to at all but it seems like there may
be a world of books out there that I could have access to?
Many thanks in anticipation,
This is an off topic subject since JAWS does not work on such a device.

The feature of jaws having the shortcut preset for desktop icon was
taken out after FS took over. you have always had to manually put
those shortcuts back in. When doing such you don't have to write it
out. Just hit the keys you want and windows will do the rest.

When you press F5 you should see a tree view. Then use arrow and tab,
