Hi James,
what you need to understand is that it isn't VoiceOver that's going to
make other applications more accessible, but the other applications
which need to take advantage of updated technology in Mac, like Cocoa.
It is a transitional process. As developers catch up with Cocoa, more
applications will be usable with VoiceOver. It's sort of like the use
of MSAA in Windows. It took a while, bu tmore applications are starting
to use those features. ITunes, for example, is still a bit behind the
times, but once it has a major overhaul, I expect it'll work well with
VoiceOver.

Hi folks,
Well I've got to say that personally for me, there is more to Voice
Over han just the clarity of its speech. I am extremely interested in
the Braille support, as well as the new navigation features but I read
nothing of application support etc. Does anyone know if this will be
included?
Also, will Leopard 10.5 be issued on a CD to be bought at Apple
retailers world-wide, or will it be a software download? Personally, I
hope its a Cd.
I hope that the new Voice over will run more smoothly with
applications, with fewer busy situations, an the need in Mail to swich
off and then switch on Voice Over to be able to rite an E Mail.
But still, i although I would like to se bug fixes and Voice over
integration with applications improve, the prospects for the new
release sem very good.
Let's hope so.
Best Wishes
James
