We have adopted Kurzweil 3000 as it works with JAWS. Read and Write does not and from my understanding there are no plans to make it totally accessible to those who are blind. I have used Read and Write in previous settings and it is a great product, however my perspective has shifted towards the use of products that are accessible to all.

Subject: [Athen] Kurzweil 3000 vs. Read&Write

Hello everyone,

Our program is considering a transition from Kurzweil 3000 to Read&Write. While I understand there are many advantages and disadvantages, I was wondering if you can give me a comparison if you have experience with both programs.

Thank you,
