"Accessibility" of Flash and Flex is currently available on Windows and does not work very well or at all sometimes with certain AT. They may start putting some accessibility into the Macintosh version but I would expect that, at best, it will be a poor solution. This is based on Adobe's history and I doubt they have found sudden enlightenment but, rather, will do a minimal job so as to satisfy some state and Federal regulations.
