build of Jaws, and discovered I need to map the keys to get a jaws
key.

lots of snappiness improvements with vo as far as when you upgrade from
leopard. In snowy it's also possible to lable controls with a hotkey that
escapes me for now. Handy when you have a fairly accessible app and no labels
on some controls.

Didn't trackpad commander get included in 10.6? if your mac has a multi-touch
trackpad you'd be able to see those advantages as well. that's a big
improvement in my opinion. I use it all the time with VO on my mbp.

It does this for me, too, while reading my textbooks. I just press vo a again
and it starts reading again.

Hi Cam,
Sharp Keys works fine in Win 7 64 bit in Fusion. Just start the exe file and
begin to remap your keys. To learn mor how to adjust keys listen to the podcast

It's quite easy.
Have fun

Keep in mind that the version posted on my site is still in early development.
This means that you *will* experience crashes once in awhile. But I agree with

I hear that Parallels has less lag than Fusion does, but all discussion I've

Go with Fusion, parallels is not accessible with voiceover. For some reason,

Hello Marlaina,
The choice of DOM or Groups mode is very personal. In DOM mode, you can only

In Groups mode, you can navigate in all directions and the items are put
