Seeking input and layout assistance (IE6, what else).
I am considering using a Son of Suckerfish dropmenu for one item in my
main nav bar.
It is accessible to screenreaders but how - if it's even possible –
can it be made keyboard accessible?
For example, tab to the item in the menu > hit another key(?) to open
the dropmenu > tab to chosen submenu item > hit enter.

Having a hierarchical menu operate via the keyboard is, in my opinion, not
the most accessible approach. This simple example page might provide some
insight into how to apprach the accessibility of a dropdown or flyout menu:
