I'm going to paste in yesterday's post on this topic. Although Numbers  
is accessible, my suggestion is that you'll find the best experience  
using Tables. This is supposed to be on sale for 40% off through  
November 30, but since the developer is in Germany I don't know which  
time zone that cut-off works for (it's a Thanksgiving Day sale).  The  
list price is 29 Euros, and they also have educational discounts;  
there is a fully functional trial you can download and use for 30  
days.  The developer worked with a number of VoiceOver users for this  
release, and the product was available before the Apple iWorks  
software was released in accessible form.  I think you'll find this  
more intuitive in its layout if you're coming from Windows.

Here's the information:

Hi,

While I think that the iWorks software, Numbers, is accessible,  I  
think Brett is correct that you'll have the easiest time with Tables.   
It's actually on sale for 40% off as part of the Thanksgiving Black  
Friday sales if you purchase it before November 30.  Here's the link  
to the discount announcement web page:
http://prmac.com/release-id-8903.htm
The page gives links and full information about entering a coupon code  
of "thanks09" (without the quote marks) upon check-out.  If you need  
the direct web site, it's:
www.x-tables.eu
and as Brett said, the developer got feedback from VoiceOver users in  
putting out this release.  List price is around 29 Euros or $48  
without the discount.

HTH

Cheers,

Esther
