Hi Bill,From what I've read and have seen posted here, the two possibilities have been either January or "spring" of 2007. I have no idea what is true, so perhaps someone else can address the actual release date.

J.P. John, Bill s here. Thanks much for the info. Be most interested to see just what's coming down the pipe VO-wise with lepard, eh? Btw, whendoes rumor have it that that will be upon us? Take care. Regards: Bill S.Hi Bill, I think the best way is to just drop a note to, [EMAIL PROTECTED] I don't think there is anyway to get directly in touch with the boss dude himself. Several people see the accessibility messages, and if memory serves me right, we've seen messages from an Apple accessibility person in the past. His name escapes me, however. Take Care John D.

My understanding is that real "steps forward" normally come with actual upgrades to the OS, but I also would have felt a bit more comfortable seeing a bit more tangible "progress". As for the future, coming from years of experience with Windows, yes, I too amalways a bit frightened as to what we will see next. All indicationsare that VO will improve, but my concerns, personally, are with theapplications in question. I expect to see them all eventually becomeaccessible, but the time frame is always a rather iffy deal. Take Care John D.

I frankly also harbor some fears that we may be disappointed to some extent when leopard comes out but I hope to find those little gnawing doubts proved to be unfounded. I don't think it's at all Apple-bashing to make our needs and concerns known along with our positive comments. -- Cheryl "Where your treasure is, there will your heart be also".J.P. John, Bill S here. I'd very much like to make my prais of, as well as the concerns for, Apples development of VO known to Steve Jobs. Question, is there a contact link where I might do this? Your response would be most appreciated. Take care. Regards: Bill S.
