Subject: What you've been waiting to see, hear and feel!



The long awaited Window-Eyes 4.0 beta 1 has been released.  Although this
beta is available for everyone to try, you must have Window-Eyes 3.0 or
3.1 (retail or demo version) already installed.  We encourage you to make
a backup of your current Window-Eyes directory before installing this
beta.

There is also a readme file that you must read before installing.  This is
very important and will allow you to enjoy all the exciting new features
and benefits of 4.0.  We want you to try out every feature and to give us
feedback if something does not work the way it was advertised.  We want
feedback whether it's good or bad!

Realize that this is the first of probably two or three betas and every
feature is not yet implemented.  Therefore, it is important that you read
the readme file to find out if a feature is active or not.

If you're ready for state of the art, and if you don't want to be left
behind, we encourage you to try this beta today.  We have Braille support,
support for Lotus Notes 5.x; we have even faster access to the Internet.
We have support for IE5.5, and support for Windows Me.  And we have
support for even more applications.  And you can bet that Window-Eyes 4.0
is more "rock solid" than ever.

Just go to our web page at http://www.gwmicro.com and look for the
appropriate link close to the top of the main frame.

Put on a pot of coffee and plan on enjoying the world as never before.  We
look forward to hearing your feedback.  Remember, the point of this beta
is for you to try out the advertised features.  Although we want your
suggestions for future releases, they won't make it into 4.0.

To add to the already exciting news about the beta release, we'd also like
to officially announce the inclusion of Eloquence speech synthesis with
the final release of Window-Eyes 4.0.  Window-Eyes 4.0 will ship with the
Eloquence software supporting multiple languages such as U.S. and U.K.
English, Castilian and Mexican Spanish, French, German, Brazilian
Portuguese and Italian.  But remember, Eloquence will ship with the actual
4.0 release, not with the public betas.

Remember too that if you purchase 3.1 now, you can run the new beta and it
will not act like a demo.  Also, if you purchase 3.1 now, you can download
the actual 4.0 version free of charge when it is released.  You have
absolutely nothing to lose and the chance to bring the world to your ears
and fingers without timing out after thirty minutes.

We look forward to hearing from you.

Enjoy!
