Serotek Releases System Access 3.0

MINNEAPOLIS, Minn – November 10, 2008 – Serotek Corporation, the leading provider of internet and digital information accessibility software and services, today released version 3.0 of its award-winning System Access software. With this release, Serotek now offers the first full-featured screen access product with support for 64-bit operating systems, voice over IP, speech and refreshable Braille output, and the most compelling support for iTunes 8 on the market. This is a breakthrough for blind and visually impaired consumers and IT professionals alike.

New computers, from the smallest Netbook to the most powerful server, that are running OEM versions of 64 Bit Windows are instantly accessible with System Access 3.0. Additionally, first-letter navigation is now available for email, community forums, and all the diverse entertainment options available within the System Access Mobile Network.

While System Access users have long had remote access capabilities for support, training or fun, the new voice over IP feature of System Access 3.0 allows clear and crisp voice chat among connected users, virtually eliminating toll-free number costs and the need for third-party VOIP software such as Skype.

Version 3.0 of the System Access software also offers full access to speech and refreshable Braille output for applications both at home and away. With a light, portable and fully plug-and-play Alva BC640 display, accessibility is available anywhere. Connected to any computer, it offers speech and Braille output without installation, and leaves no drivers or traces of usage on the host computer.

For those interested in podcasting or increasing and cataloging their music libraries with iTunes, System Access 3.0 supports both the application interface as well as the iTunes Store with intuitive, quick and easy voice navigation.

“With this release, Serotek continues to raise the bar in the assistive technology industry” said Mike Calvo, CEO, Serotek Corporation, “and exponentially boosts the digital lifestyle for the blind and visually impaired while at home, work or traveling.”

The update to version 3.0 will happen seamlessly for existing customers with no need for user intervention. New customers do not need to download an installation package. Instead, they can visit www.satogo.com and initiate the automated installation process. Users may begin a trial or create a paid account.
