John,
You bet, if I get any feedback from Apple, I'll share that info.
Btw, yes the sleep issue creates all kinds of discussion, but when I
started mucking about with it, I anticipated a particular behavior
and when something else happen, I was very interested in why the
results were different.
What I've noticed is that when set to everyday, it will wake up, but
what is definately odd is the fact that this is the only time it'll
wake up as far as I can tell. What also is even more odd is when it
does wake up, if you have your machine set to require a password to
wake from sleep or unlock the screen, and you do not enter that
password, the machine goes back to sleep. This behavior makes sense
if you accidentally hit a key and woke the machine up, but it should
upon a scheduled event wake and stay running until you put it back to
sleep etc.
This is one of those things Apple should address because it doesn't
function as one would expect.
Will share any results on this as well.

Hi Scott,
It is nice to have the problem confirmed. It's really odd
that that particular file is making VO crash. The other three
product info sheets I got with it all work fine. It frustrates me
further that I can open it in Windows...
Good luck with the sleep problem. Let us know how it works
out. I really haven't messed much with the sleep settings. I just
keep the machine running during the work day and use the screen
saver. I know that topic has caused a bit of controversy, but it
works fine for me.
Take Care

And so I did, I submitted this to Apple, I could reproduce the
problem consistantly. Very interesting so I sent along the log as
well.

I haven't seen that, but look for the crash log in library/logs
and if this is something to happens consistantly, I'd consider
submitting it as an issue. If you want to send it along, I'd
happily see how it behaves.

Hi folks,
I haven't used Preview to read PDF files much, but I got a
few today I wanted to give a test run with on my iBook. Oddly
enough, when Preview opened and I tried to read the file, it
sounded as if VO kept crashing. I kept getting the "VoiceOver
is running" announcement, without fail, any time I attempted to
navigate in Preview to read the file. Has anyone encountered
this problem and if so, any particular reason why this might be
happening. I was able to read the document with Adobe on my
Windows box.
Thanks
