Wonder why I keep saying you should always use real video and sound cards even if you utilize Screen Reader software? Stuttering speech and drop outs can sometimes be caused by Direct X and the synk of video and audio devices. So a big sound card may have to wait for the video that comes along with some files to catch up with what's on screen. But with Vista your going to get one heck of a better experience if you have real honest to goodness cards on board. Below is an Ars Technica article that fills you in on the super cool fantastic audio enhancements in Vista. Take note those who like to run four sound sources at once.. this reeks of awesomeness!

Also I know for a fact that the ZT Keyboards are on their way to dealers and those who pre ordered their units. Below is the official sales press release.

Designed for the ZoomText user, the new ZoomText Keyboard makes typing and using ZoomText faster and easier than ever before. Each key and button label is easy to see, even in low light, thanks to its 36 point keycaps and high-contrast black on yellow color scheme.
The ZoomText keyboard also provides quick access to ZoomText 9.0 features. Sixteen dedicated buttons allow you to instantly start ZoomText, change magnification levels, toggle screen enhancements, launch AppReader and DocReader, and more, all without having to memorize hotkeys.
