Henry:

It is a free speech software.  I think it was developed in Australia.

I'm hearing really good things about it.  I down loaded it and have been trying to learn to use it.  I wonder if there are any list serves for it.

You can give a donation if you like and I probably will if I start using it more.  I'm using a very old version of JAWS; I just can't afford to constantly upgrade.

Hi All;
What is MDVA? I have heard of it before, and would like to learn more about it please.
Thank you.

I'm trying to learn NVDA; I'm tired of paying for JAWS upgrades.  If there 
are other people using NVDA I would love to speak with them.

HI greg,

I’m not sure about Jaws but both work fairly well with NVDA.
I have a copy of Jaws 16 or 17, which I can use to test.
The last time I used Jaws Skype was fairly accessible.
On the iPhone, both are accessible.
I currently use a Mac but would of course use NVDA and Jaws to help others 
here since many don’t use that platform.

Hope this answers your question,
Liz
