Hi everyone,
Has anyone ever used R J Thunder? Its speech on a USB memory stick that supposedly be plugged in to any computer and will give you speech without loading any software.
I have one to try out for a week or two, but just wondering if anyone's used it.

I tried the thunder free screen reader and i wasn't impressed with it. The USB version of thunder costs 150 pounds. If it is the same as the free version it is not worth the money.
The NVDA free screen reader can be run on a memory stick and it is free and works much better and it has got a decent html support.

For free screen reading, have a look at NVDA. It, too, can be run from a removable device such as a usb drive.
