The design of a web page has nothing to do with its accessibility via
lynx. Accessibility is a matter of source code structure and quality.

No matter what the web page looks like in a graphical browser, you can
optimize the source code to make it better accessible for people who use
lynx or other programs which mainly display the textual contents of a html
document in the order presented there. Take a look at
http://www.w3.org/WAI/

IMHO a redesign should use XHTML/CSS. Otherwise it would be hard to
realize proper accessibility for lynx :-)
I agree with Stuart, contents and navigation should be seperated.
