I agree with John 1 billion! percent! Honestly, you all need to be
greatful, as frankly, $35 is actually quite reasonable, when you consider
what all Pages can do!
I'm not gonna comment any more on this. I'll stand to support this until
the end.

Subject: Re: It's finally here, a comprehensive guide to Pages on the Mac
with VoiceOver
I see both sides of this argument.
On the one hand, having such a comprehensive resource freely available means
that it can be given to as wide of an audience as humanly possible. However,
I’m sure putting a book like this together is no simple task. It probably
requires a lot of time—time that the author could be using to do other
things for themselves and or their family. I have no problem compensating
somebody for something as long as it’s well researched and full of useful
knowledge.
Also, as a person who has as one of his duties teaching Mac OS with
Voiceover to clients, I’m more than willing to grab this book and
encorporate some of its information into training sessions as appropriate.
Also, even though $35 may seem like a lot of money—indeed it certainly may
be for many people—it’s not, in the grand scheme of things, a bad price. I
could see a book like this priced at or above $100, though I’ve come to
expect reasonable prices from Mosen Consulting, and would be shocked if they
ever tried to charge that much for this knowledge.
That’s all. Back to silently observing I go.
DFTBA!

This kind of knowledge should be free to everybody, and it will be.
Nobody should be forced to pay so much for beneficial knowledge which
would be extremely valuable to everybody, be they financially able or not.

I'd love Applevis guides and podcasts for it too. I'd love to have a
free option to share with my assistive technology class. The instructors
know next to nothing about pages and the Mac, and I was very unprepared
to help them make a course for it.

Hi everyone, Anne Robertson is one of the most helpful people on
this list, particularly when it comes to using Pages. She
clearly knows it inside-out.
Last year, I contacted Anne and asked if she and her husband
Archie would be willing to distill their Pages knowledge into an
eBook. They agreed to do this and Mosen Consulting has published
it today. The book is called "My Mac Pages" and contains over
40,000 words of essential info for making the most of the
application.
You can learn more about the book here
<http://mosen.org/index.php/mymacpages/>.
Thanks to Anne and Archie for doing this. It definitely meets a
real need out there.
