Freedom Scientific has a pod cast on their web site with a full discussion
of the coming features.  It seems that most of it revolves around web
browsing improvements, particularly in handling form fields.  However,
System Access has had this improvement for well over a year already.  To be
honest, based on the initial info, this looks to me like a optional upgrade
unless form fields are a real hassle for you and you are married to JAWS.

Okay, well I saw that JAWS 10 is due out in October I think, and has anyone
heard anything about the features?
