Yeah, I was able to get it installed using immed actually. I just found the accessible object which needed to be activated and did DoDefaultAction on it. But once it is installed, I just don't see any MSAA event information coming through, nor do I see any accessible objects to work with either.

In fact, Window-Eyes would just read it out of the box were we more open to who we support MSAA in. I don't know about the rest of the Amazon program. I do see that there's very little keyboard support to begin with, even without a screen reader involved.
