Hello again,
Wow, I have to say I expected a short list but not as few as that. I know of course about JAWS but the pricing is quite prohibitive. It really is an area crying out for some open source input as in:
http://developer.gnome.org/projects/gap/AT/Gnopernicus/
Sad, as although there are checklists like...
http://webstandardsgroup.org/go/resource168.cfm
...there is nothing better than to be able to test for yourself.
Anyway this is clearly an area I need to look into a lot more.

You can download a trial (30 days) copy of IBM homepage reader (web
browser): [windows only]
http://www-3.ibm.com/able/solution_offerings/hpr.html
this is a good tool for getting a feel for how your pages are "heard" as
it is simpler/easier to use than full blown screen readers such as JAWS.
there is also a screen reader [outSPOKEN] for the mac which you can download a demo of, but i think it may have stopped being produced. http://www.synapseadaptive.com/alva/outspoken/outspoken_for_mac.htm
