Accessing the Amazon Web site via Google Chrome with VoiceOver for mac appears to be unaffected by the bugs under discussion.

Sometimes it annoys me how many headings I have to go down before I get to what I want to read, but it is still pretty easy to do. Navigating by headings is still your friend, which is nice because I have been on mini shopping sites were navigation by heading does not work, and that presents a serious problem.
