[nfbwatlk] FW: Accessible World Tek Talk Presents a Discussion of iTunes with JAWS 11, February 8, 2010

Tue Feb 2 21:55:29 UTC 2010

News Wire:

In 2005, long before access to iTunes was easier for visually impaired
people to access than it is now, T&T Consultancy developed J-Tunes - an
interface linking the popular JAWS for Windows screen-reader and the iTunes
music management system. In 2009, they presented to Accessible World iTunes
Version 4, considerably enhancing the basic functionality output from the
screen-reader to iTunes.

T&T Consultancy have now just launched J-Tunes Version 5, providing high
quality access to the latest release of iTunes, version 9.2. This release of
iTunes is essential when transferring material to the newer iPod and iPhone
range. They have pleasure in coming back to Accessible World's Tek Talk
webinar program to tell you about the new features and how they will be
regularly providing new features to the software during 2010. In particular,
they have been asked to spend time giving you useful tips and tricks
concerning how to use JAWS 11 and to gain the most from the iTunes Store and
so the majority of the presentation will focus upon this area of iTunes.

Brian Hartgen, T&T Consultancy's Product Development Manager, will give a
live demonstration of J-Tunes including its interaction with the Store. The
second part of the presentation will take the form of questions from the
audience and Anna Dresner, who has a wealth of expertise in the area of
iTunes access and who is the author of books on the subject, will be on hand
to answer questions with Brian. So do bring your questions along; they look
forward to answering them.
