I am using System access To go this is sooo damn cool! I was just on the zone, and i read on one of the boards that it was now free. so unlike my previous attempt of a while a go with trying to run it, I am now.
We don't have to turn forms mode on or anything. and I configured the speech to how I want! man this is too cool! I am unsure why such an excellent thing is free now, but I'm not complaining or anything! wow, it's just way too cool! I guess the screen reading companies have a bit of competition now!
I mean it even works in skype; reads the list and all better than jaws! haven't tried msn yet, but am sure it will work in that too! eudora? let's see! well, what do ya know? reads my email list absolutely fine!
msn? fine! yeah baby! this is too awesome! well done to the Serotek people! (! :) I am using decktalk which takes a bit of getting use too. I had other options, probably the realspeak synths on my puter.
Well off I go to play around with this some more. Oh, I tried to get an account, but the thing was taking way too long to register, so I thought I'd just forget that for now.
til next time, RdFreak
::edit:: I just got an email from them to say I had registered, so got my account and pin number. yeah! :)

sa2go is cool although a bit sluggish on the eeepc. You must be on the web to use it; the free version. the pay version is only $500 US for the mobile version; although I agree it is cool also. It's a way Seratek can provide access to many people who can not afford a screen reader. they may introduce pay only in future.

I tried the demo of it when you still had to pay for it. What do we need to do to get the free one?

oh it's still exactly the same. go to www.sa2go.com (or whatever the web site was; think it was that, can't remember by heart yet) but it's a bit tricky from there. it will say press enter to start or something, and you do, but then you have to press alt R twice, one to download the program (or run it from its current location) and another to execute the program. it should kind of give you an idea of what it's doing at that point. Mine didn't speak properly initially cos I have a download mannager installed but you should be right! :)

No I know how to run it. What I meant is, what do we need to to to sign up for the free account? I went on to the website, but there wasn't anything there, or do I use my previous phone number and PIN and it'll get me in for free?

well I never had a paid account with them, so I don't know. I would imagine you should sign up again. it just gave me the link to register when I finished downloading the file and all that. good luck! :)

Crap, I forgot my pin..I hope I still have the email where they gave it to me. Do you still have the email and if so do you remember what the subjectline of it is? I mean the email they send you when you register. If you do it'd be great as it'd help me trace it.

Thanks..I seem to have somehow misplaced or deleted it. I hope there's some sort of 'forgotten pasword' option there or that they'll let me register again. I wouldn't use it on daily bases, but it would be nice to use when somewhere away and not needing to install anything!
