I wonder how Rim could possibly pull this off to get VO to speak for the remote 
machine? I know Windows screen readers have programming interfaces or something 
to facilitate this through remote desktop, and the remote end basically uses 
the client as a synthesizer. They could have you install a separate speech 
service on both sides that you switch the remote machine's VO voice to, and it 
just speaks through the system voices on the client end, maybe, but the 
permission prompts on OSX wouldn't be much fun without sight, and if that 
machine is in the cloud, I don't know that one can get the provider to do what 
you have to do at the physical machine to allow it through when you connect.

VOCR is an app that will ocr your screen. As to the differences, this is not a 
technical detail as I have not used TeamViewer, but RIm gives you access to 
someone else's computer computer including there screen reader. It’s my 
understanding that the Mac version works differently than Windows in that it 
interprets the screen reader through VO without you hearing it directly. If you 
have ever used NVDA on the phone, then it works the same way as RIM is supposed 
too.
