Well, it cannot be compared to JAWS or Window-Eyes but really, I don't know whether this list is the place to have a discussion on this particular topic. A few messages ago, one of the other listers gave an url to a very good resource page where you can find allot of info on VoiceOver, what people are using it with and for and an extremely informative email list to boot. If you go to http://www.apple.com and search for VoiceOver, you'll find a mound of stuff there too including tutorials on VoiceOver and various applications in multiple formats which include MP3 Audio and HTML. Naturally, I will answer any questions anyone has off list, I'm not a Mac expert by any manner of means but if I cannot answer a question then I can hopefully point you in the right direction.
