Rhonda,
I think you should talk to rehab about it; if you're going to grad school and that is job related then it seems fair that rehab pay for your jaws.  I would try that before going on your own privately and getting Windows eyes.  I am a jaws user and have heard its advantages.  Besides why learn something new if you don't need  to?
Yes I also urge you to get a SMA so you can continue to get jaws updates in the future.

  Perhaps, Fs is thinking rehab will once again purchase their product for me.  Keeping a sma current would be the best option. Wish I had thought of that before.

        That is correct Rhonda.

        I am in the same situation. I have a Jaws 8.0 and in order to upgrade I will need to pay $550. I just can not except having to pay that right now. Freedom Scientific must think that blind people are rich or something, but it is simply not afordable to majority of blind people. However, we almost need it it. If one wants to get a upgrade I would strongly recommend paying extra $200 for the SMA so that the next three releases will be free and my advice would to maintain the SMA. Just my thoughts.

        I seldom think about my limitations, and they never make me sad. Perhaps there is just a touch of yearning at times; but it is vague, like a breeze among flowers.

          Yes, they asked me for my serial number and confirmed my name and address and then quoted me that price.

        I have Jaws 8, so the upgrade price is  500 and some…..not actually in my price range now. Fs doesn’t offer a payment plan like Gwmicro does.

        I guess most purchases are made by government agencies and the like.

         

        Thanks for your thoughts.

        Hi Rhonda,

        If you're concern is the cost, you might want to call Freedom Scientific and find out, financially speaking, what your options are. You might also want to visit http://www.fsactivate.com/ and press enter on the Continue Product Activation button.
