Thanks to a free trial, I can report that the short answer to my question is
that this app appears to be inaccessible. When launched, it does not appear in
the dock or present a menu, and it disappeared when ever I moved focus away. I
was able to relaunch Phone Amego by pointing to it and pressing
command-downarrow. It seemed possible to configure various devices, however I
closed all Windows, and now when I attempt to launch, nothing happens. If I
use vo-rightArrow I hear the spoken message stating: "phone amego has no
windows". I restarted without reopening windows, but this accomplished nothing.
So the bottom line is that it is possible to configure PhoneAmego once, but I
suspect they used the technique of adding a pulldown menu to which the
voiceOver authors have determined does not need to be read by VI customers.
One thing to be said for competing screen readers!!!!
Best regards.

Subject: Phone Amego accessibility?
Greetings all,
Today, the MacUpdate site is discounting PhoneAmego by 40%. I will list
there brief description below. I thought before blowing the fifteen bucks and
playing ginny pig I'd ask if anyone here has tried it?
Phone Amego (Family Pack) provides Caller ID, click-to-dial, Address Book,
Google Voice, and phone integration for up to 5 Macs.
Features:
a.. On screen caller ID with optional voice announcement.
b.. Dial calls directly from your Address Book or selected text.
c.. Works with popular Bluetooth phones including iPhone.
d.. Works with landline phones connected through a USB modem.
e.. VoIP caller ID with Linksys/Sipura VoIP telephone adaptors.
f.. Caller ID sharing and remote dialing with other hosts on your LAN.
g.. Keep notes about each caller in a distributed database and pull them up
anywhere.
h.. Send SMS to multiple recipients using Google Voice.
i.. Shows inbound and outbound call progress.
j.. Thoughtful, uncluttered user interface.
TIA for any input and best regards.
Geoff
