  I've been involved in doing some work in the international 
disability areana and one of my colleagues needs a screen reader 
that doesn't cost any money, like an open source type of screen 
reader program.  Is anyone aware of free or extremely low cost 
screen reading solutions other than JAW's? These will be for 
pretty poor countries so the software needs to be pretty 
inexpensive if not free.  Any leads you can provide is greatly 
appreciated.  Thanks in advance for any help.
