Dave,
Additionally:
1. if you have a Mac you can start the VoiceOver
tutorial with
Ctrl-Option-Cmd-F8.
2. There is an online guide to VoiceOver for Snow
Leopard at
http://www.apple.com/uk/voiceover/info/guide/
3. I have a DAISY download of this guide acquired
through the
Association for the Blind of Western Australian. I
can't remember where
I downloaded it from, but can find out if you think
you'd like to
investigate it.
4. There are two useful mailing lists I know of. Mac
VoiceOver is "for
those who wish to learn VoiceOver" and is at
//www.freelists.org/list/macvoiceover
The MacVisionaries list describes itself as the "home
of the blind Mac
user community". It's at
http://groups.google.com/group/macvisionaries/about?hl=en
5. The screenless switchers podcast is another good
source. I don't have
a link for this, but you can search for it.

Subject: [access-uk] Apple Voice Over Tutorials
Hi All,
Does anyone know of any good tutorials to enable me to
quickly get to
grips with using Apples voice over screen reader.
I am used to using JAWS and have all the shortcuts to
applications and
files set up on my PC desktop.
However, on the Mac, things seem a little different.
The speed at
which it responds to key commands is very impressive.
I just need to
master the key commands.
Any help much appreciated.
Cheers
Regards
Dave Ankers
