I have just received my jaws2 update and am quite pleased with
what I've found.  This programjust thrills me.  You all have
made many improvements.  I've not had a chance to try out
everything but here area few things I'm really impressed with.
1. the ability to have a separate voice for the jaws cursor.
That eliminates any question as to which cursor is on.  2. the
manues are not as verbose as before but say what is necessary: a
great improvement.  3. Designing the program to get the most out
of the individual sinthicizer and creating an "extra" menue to
do that.  4.  Providing good documentation and training tapes
that to me is amust.  5.  maybe it's because I've become more
confortable with macros or that I realize their power or a
combination of both but the macro feature of this program works
very nicely.  The program runs smoothly with few  glitches or
lockups.  I've had success with Dectalk and the Soundingboard.
I have the original jaws 2 but I can't seem to make that work.
I'll have to call and request a update for the Artic version of
jaws 2.
Now that you have provided a separate voice option for the Jaws
cursor you have taken away my last discomfort with Jaws.  You/ve
got a first rate product.  congradulations!
