*Note to AT Users: Upon the release of software upgrades, there is often a lag between the software release date and the time it takes for some Assistive Technology manufacturers to upgrade their software and device drivers to support these new releases. The manufacturer’s porting timeframe may be a factor in determining when you decide to upgrade to take advantage of new features in Microsoft Office OneNote 2007. Microsoft provides the software code within its products to make our products "ready" for the AT devices and works closely with major AT providers in an effort to decrease the time to market for new versions of AT products. We encourage both end users and purchasers of AT to contact their AT manufacturer to determine the current compatibility of their existing AT with Microsoft products.
