Hi Shaun, Actually, there are more than one library out there for Windows for accessing multiple screen readers. There is Accessible Output for Python, there is Universal Speech which is available for various languages, and now there is Tolk. So I agree supporting multiple screen readers isn't all that difficult these days assuming you are willing to abide by the license agreement for the screen reader API you are using.
However, regarding iDevices it is very expensive to develop for. At least if the end user is a Windows user. He or she must purchase a Mac running OSX, must buy the proper development toolkits for iOS, and probably have an iPad or iPhone available for testing. Therefore I don't really see a lot of Windows developers just leaving the Windows platform to go for iDevices any time soon because they have to have different hardware, software, and skills to develop for an iDevice. Cheers!
