That sounds damn nice, all the more reason for paying $200.00, I
think that's what the upgrade price will be here in Australia.

Well, the official description of Leopard VoiceOver features says:
In VoiceOver you can navigate sequentially through an application or
document or skip through by object. For example, you could jump to
the next or previous header, button, link, field, graphic, or text
attribute, such as font or style
http://www.apple.com/macosx/leopard/features/accessibility.html
Note it doesn't specifically mention forms or tables. And it doesn't
mention skipping groups of links to the next block of text at all. If
you want to see them in Leopard or a future version of Mac OS X, I
would therefore strongly recommend asking for those two features
specifically via [EMAIL PROTECTED], if you haven't already.
With regards to skipping groups of links, navigation lists of links
often have a certain amount of text between each link. It would be
useful to be able to configure how much intervening text should be
ignored when skipping over links, and it would be helpful to suggest
a good default figure (e.g. 5 characters, perhaps). I'd also suggest
that skipping over links should be a Safari feature rather than a
VoiceOver feature, since it is useful to people who have good
eyesight but have mobility impairments which means they must use the
keyboard or a switch device to move around. (This is actually true of
a lot of VoiceOver features, but skipping groups of links seems a
particular important one because many pages feature lots and lots of
links.)
