Thanks Jörn, good idea, that did the trick.

With some fiddling I was able to reduce the code to look like this, so it
can be applied to any list of elements:

        var showInSequence = function($el){
                if($el && $el.is())
                        $el.eq(0).show("slow", function(){ 
showInSequence($(this).next()) } );
        }

        showInSequence( $("#myList LI") );
