Hi Simon, Yes, you can use it in a very similar way to VO on the iPhone. I received my magic trackpad yesterday and it works brilliantly from what I can tell so far. It's extremely responsive and there's plenty of room to carry out the gestures. Plus, with the option to add customised gestures by holding down a modifier key and performing a gesture, there's a wealth of possibilities. The standard set of VO gestures can't be changed, so it's fairly easy to use straight away if you're an iPhone user already.

I took the plunge yesterday and bought the magic trackpad. i've only used Vo with multi-touch trackpads briefly before as I have an iMac. But because I use the iPhone I could see the benefits such an interface would bring to Mac OS. Having spent nearly two days with the trackpad, I personally thing that it is the best thing to happen in assistive technology recently. To be able to visualise how things are laid out on the screen is just amazing. It's larger size is also an advantage. It has really changed the way how I use my Mac and I won't be going back to using the numpad commander unless I have to.
