: There is an upgrade link on the site.  The upgrade process appears similar
: enough to the first-time purchasing process - with both a try before you 
buy
: demo and a purchasable version.

: no, there is a dictionary built into the mac os which works with 
voiceover.

: You mean, the same talking dictionary being mentioned?  that's 
interesting.
: can you guesstimate then why its latest version has failed to take off in
: that there is an apparent fall-off in purchases of it by Windows users?  I
: don't need to try another dictionary, myself.

: We released a new version of our Talking Dictionary in June and since
: then sales have slumped quite dramatically. We've no idea why,
: especially as the latest version adds new features. We have, of
: course, retro tested everything to see if we made a mistake but it all
: looks correct.
:
: It would be very helpful if visually impaired users could try the demo
: and give me their opinions - or let me know if it didn't work at all!
