I tested the Google site, and it didn't read it for me, either.  On a
similar note, I have the same problem in Outlook.  When Outlook fills in an
address, I can't tell whose address it selected; it doesn't read as it auto
completes.  Oh, I can review it with the JAWS cursor, but it's frustrating.

That's a new feature that browsers like Firefox will take advantage of,
yeah. On a similar note, though, I have the same problem in Eudora with
addresses being completed automaticly and JAWS not speaking them. Ironicly,
that's been there since 7.10.
