<p class="MsoNormal">Hi,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We are reevaluating our Text to Speech solution (highlighting, speech, etc.) that we support on our campus for those using e-text reading (not screen reading we have JAWS for that). We are considering our current solution, Read & Write,
but also looking into Kurzweil 3000 and Natural Reader. We are looking towards free software we can give out or software licensing where we can manage the licenses on our end such as Kurzweil 3000. Any feedback would be appreciated in helping us make a decision
on what solution has worked best for your campus.<o:p></o:p></p>
