Daniel, well Tim's knowledge about IVEo is wrong.  IVEO has been updated
fairly recently, and a new version is undergoing alpha testing now.  It does
work with Windows 7 - I use it all the time.  The new version is being
developed to take advantage of features in Windows 8.1 but also works well
with 7.  The new Viewer app is in beta test, and if you'd like a copy, I'm
happy to let you be a beta tester.

One site you should be familiar with is access2science.com.  It has lots of
info but is proving to be a bit much for me to maintain, so I have recruited
another person or two to update the site and keep the materials more up to
date.  In the meantime if there are things that people on this list would
like to see put on that list, just send me links.

Hi Daniel,
1. IVEO: talk to Viewplus support, but to my knowledge it hasn't been
updated in years. My recommendation is not to bother trying Iveo. My
Iveo touchpad has been a waste of time and has been catching dust for
years, because the software is so buggy it is useless.
2. There are few science oriented assistive technology products, and to
my knowledge there are no specific channels to follow for updates
concerning science oriented assistive technology products. This list is
the right place to ask about such products and many updates are posted
here. ICCHP Summer university (www.icchp-su.net) is an annual event
where most of the important people in this (extremely small) field come
together, and I can recommend this event to any blind science student or
professional working with such students. If you're interested in more
information don't hesitate to contact me (tim at dvlop.nl).
3. lateX: you're on the right list, there are a lot of lateX experts
including myself on this list so if you have questions on lateX just ask
here.
Tim
