Tom Johnston is 23 years old and lives in Leicester, UK. He lost his sight due to Marfans Syndrome, a condition that affects the body's connective tissue, but after studying at a boarding school for students who are blind in Worcester, he went on to achieve an accounting degree at Loughborough University. Speech software is important to both Tom's working and social life and he runs Freedom Scientific's JAWS for Windows screen reader on the main PC in his home. However, this tied Tom to the computer in his room and he wanted more freedom. He found it with a wireless HP iPAQ Pocket PC and Mobile Speak Pocket (MSP) screen reading software from Barcelona-based Code Factory S.L., an HP Assistive Technology Partner.
