Hello list, I don't know if anyone saw or has read the coverage of Apple's press conference, but it looks like ITunes 8 is now accessible with screenreaders. In ITunes what's new section, among all the other new features, ithas a section on enhanced accessibility. It just states that ITunes now works with Voice Over and Window Eyes on Macs and PC's. Being a Jaws user myself, I was a bit bumbed out when I read this but downloaded it anywaysince it couldn't be any worse than it already was as fall as being able touse it. I've been playing with it for a few minutes and so far, a lot seems to beusable even for a jaws user. There are some parts where I'm having trouble,but compared to how it was before where the best I could do was use the various jaws cursors to get around, it's a world of difference.Perhaps more experienced Jaws users can also weigh in if they have a chanceto play with the program. I doubt that this is the surprise mentioned in FS's podcast about Jaws 10since Apple didn't even mentioned Jaws in their updated information and evenwith Jaws 9, it seems to work well...
