Well, the new MSN Messenger is more usable, but I wouldn't call it VO
compliant. I hope the up-coming office version is more accessible,
but I'm not holding my breath.

Office 2004 was released is, well, 2004 so it's getting a bit long
in the tooth as they say. I think VoiceOver wasn't released until
OSX 10.4 which came out in April 2005. So that would mean Office was
released before VoiceOver. That said, a new version of office is
slated for January 2008 and I would expect that one to actually work
well with voiceover.

Before I bought a mac, I had heard that Apple would not put
anything on the mac or certify anything for mac installation that

application to meet was VoiceOver compatability before it would be
100% cocoa compliant. Apparently Microsoft and several other
vendors were somehow grandfathered in given the inaccessibility of
Microsoft Office.
