Apple's all ready working on this?

Perhaps, they should have worked on it BEFORE the product release!

They took many years to "work on" Voice Over, and it is mediocre at best.  
I'm really not too impressed with an outfit that starts out on the leading 
edge of accessibility (Apple Talk etc.) and slips to the back of the pack 
with software that is so proprietary that everything remains under a 
nondisclosure agreement until its forgotten.

So, work away Apple, don't expect my advocacy to stop!

(I believe accessibility is jmuch more easily built in to a product before 
it is released.  In this way, everybody starts out on an equal footing!)
