I use it at work, and I would say it's accessible. I'm not sure what 
accessibility glitches you're referring to, and I would say the 
interface is still clunky, but I don't have any problems reading 
messages or attachments. The one issue I have related to attachments is 
that I don't know how to access attachments attached to a message 
invite. I usually have to detach them first from the calendar view and 
then bring them up. This may not be true since I upgraded Outlook and 
JAWS recently, and I still need to see if this is a problem. I used to 
have problems reading the location of a meeting when I was creating the 
invite, but this has started working recently. There was also a problem 
where I couldn't edit my own signature template, but again, this started 
working recently.
