Hi John and list, This whole EBay thread brings up an interesting question, are any of you aware of a jaws based Ebay/Paypal tutorial? I have been on the site several times but was never comfortable enough with it to participate in the bidding process.

The site is completely accessible with Jaws and is the best way to get your bid in right at the very end. I have used it several times and it works very well.
