Kurweil 3000: Web reading Feature

Kurweil 3000: Web reading Feature

Hey Everyone,

This next post is on the read the web feature. The read the web feature on K 3000 allows the individual with print disabilites access to the text on the web. To enable this feature the user selects it from within the K 3000 program under the READ drop down menu. This will open a browser window. On my computer it opened Firefox and it had difficulty loading the information. If possible I would change this feature to allow the read feature to work on a different browser because I have difficulty running Firefox. If this is  only allowed to work on a single browser I could see that being an obstacle from some people. When I finally did get the read feature to work I like that the sentence is highlight in one color and the word being read was in a different color. Also the rate of speech is able to be customized.
