I recently learned of Amazon's s3 and was excited to try your s3 browser. As a totally blind Mac user, I found some accessibility issues when trying to use s3 browser with VoiceOver, Apple's built in screen reader. I'm not sure how to best report these problems, but I'm hoping they're something easily fixable. My main problem thus far is in the preferences dialog -- VoiceOver reads many of the objects as "unknown." Interestingly enough, I can "interact" with these objects and based on context, can kind of figure out what they actually are. Sadly, I'm not a real techie, so can't be very specific on what the problem is. My understanding, however, is that VoiceOver expects objects to be labeled a certain way, or to conform to a certain highly specific set of rules. Again, the program is usable by blind users, but not without a bit of playing around in the preferences pane.
I'd be glad to Email you with further details if interested. I apologize for posting this to the blog, however, I'm not finding another way to contact you.
Thanks for creating S3 browser, it's fantastic that we can administer s3 accounts directly from the Mac.

Best,
Steve
