  FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
  GW Micro Launches GWSkype
  Fort Wayne, Indiana (December 19, 2011) - GW Micro, Inc. (www.gwmicro.com) 
  announced
  a major innovation today for the blind and visually impaired community. 
  GW Micro,
  developers of Window-Eyes, the most powerful screen reader available, have 
  developed
  GWSkype - a Window-Eyes app that makes Skype accessible to all blind and 
  visually
  impaired people who use a Windows computer.
  Skype is a peer-to-peer service that allows users to call and message 
  others via
  the Internet.  Skype users may also call other landlines for a fee.  While 
  Skype
  has been around for years, its constantly changing user interface has been 
  extremely
  difficult for blind and visually impaired users.  "Each time the user 
  interface changes,
  we have to completely write new a new Window-Eyes app to account for the 
  changes,"
  said Dan Weirich, Vice President of Sales and Marketing for GW Micro. 
  "These constant
  changes make it difficult or impossible for blind and visually impaired 
  consumers
  to continue using the Skype service."
  The new GWSkype app will always make the Skype service available to blind 
  and visually
  impaired computer users regardless of new versions of Skype that are 
  released.  The
  GWSkype app is a Window-Eyes app and demonstrates the power of Window-Eyes 
  apps unmatched
  by any of its competitors.  As Christmas is approaching, GW Micro is 
  releasing the
  GWSkype app to all blind and visually impaired users who are running 
  Windows at no
  cost.  So, even a consumer not running Window-Eyes can still download and 
  use the
  GWSkype app.
  "We believe that this is a special time of year and we want to give back," 
  said Weirich.
  "GWSkype is a special gift from GW Micro to all blind and visually 
  impaired users
  of Windows".
  The GWSkype app can be downloaded at http://www.gwmicro.com/apps/gwskype. 
  You can
  download the GWSkype live webinar and product demonstration at 
  www.gwmicro.com/podcast.
  GW Micro has been a trusted pioneer in the adaptive technology industry 
  since 1990,
  and continues to lead with innovative, customer driven solutions.
