Paid versions are available with additional features, but the<br>free version works well as a simple text reader. A user can work with it in<br>two ways - (1) as a stand-alone text reader by opening files within Natural<br>Reader, or (2) as a tool bar to add reading functions to MS Word, MS Excel,<br>and web browsers.<br>www.naturalreaders.com <br><br><br>Also, a free web version of Inspiration is available in beta at<br>www.mywebspiration.com<br><br><br>Also, check out WebbIE - this is free, text-only web browser. This offers a<br>simple view of a web page without graphics, and allows a user to skip over<br>links if desired. <br>www.webbie.org.uk <br><br><br><br>Jeff<br><br><br><br>Regards,<br><br>Jeff Sykes<br>Assistive Technology Coordinator<br>Disability Support Services<br>Division of Inclusion and Equity<br>Grand Valley State University<br> <br><br><br>>>> Wink Harner <winkharner@mesacc.edu> 11/15/2010 10:32 AM >>><br><br><br><br>Hi all Athen-ites <br><br>Am looking for contributions from you all to add to a presentation this week<br>on: <br><br>The BEST low cost/no cost technology solutions for new to the field AT folks<br>or one wo/man shows in disability services. <br><br>Your great off the cuff solutions will be added to the presentation workshop<br>on Friday and available after the conference. <br><br>Thanks for any and all ideas.
