Hi Jonathan and all, The list of applications that work with VO is huge now. If you had come in at the beginning, your comments would have been right. At the birth of VO, the app pickings were very slim. Now though, due in part I suspect that Apple's insistence that developers use the cocoa framework for developing applications. Also, more and more developers are becoming Voice Over aware.
