Coming up on Main Menu and Main Menu Live for the week of May 15


This week on Main Menu, Rick Harmon from the Blind Geek Zone web site reviews the use of gadgets and Ready Boost on Windows Vista with JAWS for Windows Public Beta 2. Darrell and Karen Shandrow from the Blind Access Journal demonstrate the use of Serotek's Remote Incident Manager, a potentially revolutionary new technology that allows blind technicians to gain access to and remotely administer Windows computers belonging to end-users even when no screen reader has been installed.



During the second hour of Main Menu Live, we bring on Mike Calvo, CEO of Serotek, to talk with us all about FreedomBox, Remote Access Manager, Remote Incident Manager and System Access. Mike will also be taking your questions about his innovative technology. This is a show you most certainly do not want to miss!
