[nabs-l] [spotifyblindbeta] Microsoft OneNote nowblindaccessible

Kirt,
good point. Since I usually only have a handful of documents open at once,
using the command control f 6 to jump between files works okay for me.
It does not seem reasonable to pay extra when we already spend hundreds on 
the microsoft suite.

I got mine as a discount, but still, I think it was over a hundred dollars.

Ashley,
To my understanding, it's only accessible with a third-party script that 
costs $50.  That could very well be a worthwhile investment for some of us 
but I personally need a little more convincing that it's really worth it 
before I spend the money.
