The difference is that Vista is a totally new version of the Windows 
operating system and that it's very different from XP. Given the timing, I 
believe that JAWS will support Vista at about the time that Vista begins to 
be shipped as the "standard" version of Windows on new systems early in 2007 
and that this will be an update to 8.0, not a new version release. If FS 
follows their normal pattern; and I know of no reason not to think they 
will; JAWS 9.0 won't be out until late in the year. They've normally issued 
a new version (6.0, 7.0, 8.0, etc.) late every year and released updates to 
that version during the next several months. Now that they've introduced the 
automatic update feature, I think you can probably expect updates more 
frequently than in the past.

Hi, what is the difference, and is this something that will be worked on
with JFW 9.0?  I know that it will be a while before 9.0 comes out, and I
just renewed my SMA that is good for the next few upgrades to JFW.
