Andy, I don't know of any voice-recognition technology for browsers. I'm still looking for a way to simply associate keyboard commands (e.g. arrow keys) to the Previous/Next links! I know of one blind person that successfully navigates SI...the computer pronounces words as he waves his mouse over them. I'm sure it will be "possible" to navigate via voice someday, but I don't believe it is yet. Brad

Andy, Voice technology for browsers.... Some people at my office have fooled around with an IBM voice-addin for Netscape. They were trying it when IBM had a free beta on a web site somewhere. The only reference I can find now, however, is this product for sale. software.ibm.com Hope this helps. Let me know if this turns out to work for you (or if it sucks eggs). Dick
