[nabs-l] [spotifyblindbeta] Microsoft OneNote now blindaccessible

Hello,
I have an extremely affective way of taking notes as well, but even still, I 
find the options and possibilities this has very exciting. The most amazing 
feature is the real-time saving feature. The task recovery pain is nice, but 
not as nice as this.
I know there are other features I don't know about and I need to install 1 
note, but I've asked the developer lots of questions and listened to the 
podcast and I'm going to get one note as soon as I go back to my parents for 
the summer.
Thanks,

Brandon Keith Biggs

Hi Brandon,
I don't mean to be cynical, this does actually sound very potentially 
useful. Still, I'm wondering if it's worth the $50 price tag for those of us 
who already have pretty effective notetaking solutions? Incidentally, you 
don't need to use alt tab To move between Microsoft Word documents. Control 
1, Control2, Control 3 Etc. does the same thing… And it doesn't cost me 50 
extra dollars. :-)
