I think reserving Judgment until after the jaws 2018 cycle is complete and jaws2019 is out. You don't know what they have planned for the year.

let me make one thing clear, I am not bitter. I am not sure about what merge is being talked about, Window-eyes was dropped, not merged with Jaws. My point was Vfo had the chance to retain the best of Window-eyes and jaws in both technology and people and produce one hell of a screen reader unlike anything the world has ever seen and they chose not to do that, they just trashed their "compeditor" completely like they never existed.
