Dave,
Additionally:
1. if you have a Mac you can start the VoiceOver tutorial with
Ctrl-Option-Cmd-F8.
2. There is an online guide to VoiceOver for Snow Leopard at
http://www.apple.com/uk/voiceover/info/guide/
3. I have a DAISY download of this guide acquired through the
Association for the Blind of Western Australian. I can't remember where
I downloaded it from, but can find out if you think you'd like to
investigate it.
4. There are two useful mailing lists I know of. Mac VoiceOver is "for
those who wish to learn VoiceOver" and is at
http://www.freelists.org/list/macvoiceover
The MacVisionaries list describes itself as the "home of the blind Mac
user community". It's at
http://groups.google.com/group/macvisionaries/about?hl=en
5. The screenless switchers podcast is another good source. I don't have
a link for this, but you can search for it.
Steve
