[nabs-l] screen reader rental

[Joe Orozco]

Josh,

Your idea is a fair one.  Yet, it is not a new one.  Others have previously
suggested that JAWS change to a leasing model similar to what GW Micro has
been doing for its product, and a few years later the landscape has not
changed.  I dare say that if you spent half the energy you exercise in
writing these posts on completing your studies, you may very well discover
that the course using MS Project would have come and gone before you know
it.

Best,

Joe

Hi

Well then guys the only solution is this! We need to go at this from 
both the nfb and the ACB ok? because that's the only way this will work 
I think. Ok so I need supernova to do the ms-project class. Ok so we 
need to email dolphin and freedom scientific on mass and ask them to 
implement a build a bundle program like serotek has. Here's how 
it works.
You want supernova and jaws but you don't want to buy it. So lets rent 
it. You go to the freedom and or dolphin websites pick product rentals. 
you pick the products you want to rent on a monthly or per month basis. 
So I want supernova reader and jaws screen reader software. So I will 
pay $10 per month to rent supernova and another $10 for jaws. Now 4 
months later I don't want to rent them anymore, oh same goes for 
window-eyes. $10 per month. So anyway some months go bye and I decide I 
don't want this screen reader or that one. no problem! just go 
into your 
product rental account on the company's websites and cancel 
your rental. 
And at the end of the billing cycle that screen reader gets 
deactivated. 
Want some more licenses? One license of jaws is $10 per month 
plus $5 or 
so for another. So I could pay $10 for one jaws license and I 
need it on 
two other machines so I'll pay $20. Oh, I need to use openbook for 
something. No problem. I'll rent it for a month or two then cancel my 
rental. serotek does it. lets wake up the other companies folks!

Josh
