Hi,

While I'm always intersted in trying out new stuf, I am not sure I 
want to try yet another Instant Messenger. What makes this better 
than other accessible messenger solutions and is it for voice or text 
chat or both? What chat network does it connect to and what is the 
actual name of the program? Does it read incoming messages 
automatically or does it require scripting/configuration files?

I use Miranda IM for my text chatting as that is a multimessenger 
client that  can connect to all major chat networks as I prefer to 
run one instead of several programs for the same purpose.

If this is for voice chat, i just want to point out that the current 
version of skype is accessible without any screenreader specific 
configuration files and even works with the free offerings Thunder or 
NVDA. I'm not suggesting the program you found is bad. I am just 
wondering if it is better than existing solutions.

Cheers,

Doris
