>> Greetings and felicitations:
>> 
>> People who attend conventions of the National Federation of the Blind often
>> receive benefits that are not available anywhere else. For example, last
>> year, at our 2014 national convention, Federationists were able to obtain a
>> free iBill currency reader long before anyone else in the country.
>> 
>> At this year's convention of the National Federation of the Blind, Freedom
>> Scientific, maker of the well-known JAWS, MAGic, and OpenBook programs, is
>> wishing the National Federation of the Blind a happy 75th birthday by
>> offering these programs at a tremendous discount. These discounts are
>> available only to registered attendees of the convention and only if they
>> visit the Freedom Scientific booth in the convention exhibit hall. You can
>> hear about this on FS Cast #108, available for download at
>> http://podcast.freedomscientific.com/FSCast/episodes/FSCast108-Mark_Riccobon
>> o,Robin_Drodge.mp3.
>> 
>> Here are the details:
>> 
>> 1.         A brand new copy of JAWS 16 home user edition will be available
>> for $75. A service maintenance agreement will cost only $100; this will
>> ensure that you are able to obtain the next two versions of JAWS: versions
>> 17 and 18. Normally, the home edition of JAWS sells for $895.
>> 2.         If you own an older copy of JAWS, regardless of its age, you will
>> be able to upgrade to the home edition of JAWS 16 for $50. As with the brand
>> new copy, a service maintenance agreement is available for $100. Anyone who
>> has ever had to pay for an upgrade to his/her JAWS license knows that an
>> upgrade can cost several hundred dollars, depending on how many versions one
>> has to traverse.
>> 
>> 3.         If you are interested in a screen enlargement program with
>> speech, MAGic version 13 will be sold for $50, and a service maintenance
>> agreement for this software is available for $75. MAGic with speech normally
>> sells for $595.
>> 
>> 4.         Finally, If you are interested in a print-reading program,
>> Freedom Scientific's OpenBookR OCR software is available for $75. OpenBookR
>> normally sells for $995.
>> 
>> Again, this offer is available only to registered attendees of the 2015
>> National Federation of the Blind convention, and attendees must visit the
>> Freedom Scientific booth in the convention exhibit hall.
>> 
>> This is a good example of a significant benefit that is only available to
>> people attending conventions of the National Federation of the Blind.
>> 
>> Cordially,
>> 
>> Curtis Chong, President
>> National Federation of the Blind in Computer Science
