Shalom Tracy,

Although you did not list Israel, we are quite interested in learning more
about JAWS.  We don't use JAWS on a widespread basis because it is not
configured for Hebrew, so we use another screen reader that is.  But it
would be very beneficial for our English study students, and those that are
native English speakers.  Could you pass along our contact information?
Perhaps if she/he near us, we could arrange something.

Thanks,

Ellen Hoffenberg-Serfaty, JD
