   Review - Saavvii for Microsoft Word

   1.0.0 (Apr 24, 2008)

   This is a wonderful product! Don't listen to the guy below - it's worth the download and its free!
   
   It lets you work in Word without worrying about how to do things. It's hidden - completely out of the way - until you need it. It's amazing how much time is spent searching for commands, and how much it interrupts your work. You don't realize it until you don't have to do it.
   
   There are all sorts of commands that are much faster to type - like 'blue', or 'arial', or '0.5 indent', rather than searching through color wheels, font lists, or trying to be precise with the mouse on the ruler.
   
   This thing is not for complicated commands - that's not the point - it's for letting you do every day things easily. If you know the shortcut for underline, use the shortcut. But, if you don't know how to do something - like, you have 2 columns of text and you want to end them - did you know you had to insert a 'section break' to end the columns? I didn't - but I didn't have to - I just typed 'end columns'.
   
   This is a wonderful product - it's unintrusive, free (for home use), and makes computers easier to use.

   Review - Saavvii for Microsoft Word

   0.9.4b (Sep 10, 2007)

   I tried Natural Word and found it rather addictive. It is not intended as a replacement for menus and buttons, and I'll always use the shortcut keys I'm used to (I only remember 3) - but typing in 'blue', 'times', or '24' to change the size is much faster. I hate having to move my hands away from the keyboard to the mouse to use menus and toolbars, so I tend to write my document and apply formating later. With this, I found myself formatting as I typed - which was rather enjoyable.
   
   I think this should have additional benefits for people who are not great with computers, or who don't use Word that often.
   
   I would definately recommend it.
