I agree. Mostly because time is limited at these events, and it's just not what 
the vast, vast majority of people care about. As long as their commitment to 
accessibility in the important ways lasts (and I see no change there), failing 
to mention it in their keynotes seems like a tiny thing, to me. I wish that was 
all we had to complain about from every other company.

Plus, when their are important accessibility changes, the accessibility pages 
are generally updated pretty soon after, so it's not like we actually do have 
to wait until upgrading before learning anything. I was considering buying a 
Mac a good few months before Snow Leopard came out because I read about the 
trackpad and quicknav.
