Hey, if people want alternatives, I believe the answer is most likely yes.
I have to be honest when I say that I have absolutely no interest in using a mac, since Windows and JAWS serve their purposes just fine for me. That doesn't necessarily mean I won't ever try a Mac, but for now, this works.

accessibility only a jaws thing?

Subject: The Juice Receiver is cross-platform

Hello:

I've changed the subject line since this question wasn't relevant to
my last message, at all.

As I understand it, the Juice Receiver can be used on both Linux and
the Mac.  It's entirely cross-platform.

If you get it to work with Voice Over, I'd love to hear that since,
as far as I can tell, VO's ability to work depends on how programs
are developed.  But I don't want to turn this list into a discussion
of Mac and VO since there are plenty of other places to do that.

Go look for what you want to try by going directly to sourceforge at:
http://juicereceiver.sourceforge.net/index.php

I found this by using Google and searching on keywords:
"ipodder for the Mac."  It was right there on the first page.  Don't
forget that Google's your friend.
Best,
Jennifer
