Well, if it's anything like what Google Transit is, the directions are very vague at the point where you're done riding the bus. For example, it might say to take a certain bus to the transit center, transfer to another bus, get off at a given street corner, but then it just says something like "then walk to whatever address". This means that we still have no clue which direction you go after you get off the last bus, how far to go, etc. I'm sure the exact path to take is probably displayed visually in a way screen readers on computers can't read.

If that's the case, it should work quite well for VO users, given that the Google Maps app is supposed to be accessible. If it is not sufficient, Google Maps functionality is available to iPhone developers, so someone will doubtless get this working at some point.
