Read & Write Gold is already available, from us amongst many others. See
http://www.dyslexic.com/products.php?pid=196

And you could also see it in November on our stand at the Resource Show
in Doncaster or the Special Needs Show in London if you didn't want to
wait until BETT. See http://www.dyslexic.com/calendar.php.

Wordsmith itself is pretty much an obsolete product, kept available in
order to cater for older specification systems. It only works with Word,
and no longer includes Read & Write itself - ie the ability to work with
practically any Windows application (email, web browser, spreadsheet,
encyclopaedia for example). R&W Gold is the current main line product
and generally, I would suggest, much better value, unless you only use
Word.

I'm using R&W Gold at the moment, and using its abbreviation facility,
for example, to type the signature block below.
