[nfb-talk] Fwd: Amazon press release Concerning AccessibilityofWeb Site

[Ray Foret Jr]

Not so fast.
Over the course of the past few months, I have noticed that the pages of the 
Amazon site have been opening more and more slowly.  the product pages are 
particularly bad now.  Indeed, they are so slow, it's almost impossible now 
to navigate through them.  This pertains to arrowing, first letter 
navigation and the use of hot keys also.  As I say, I have noticed this over 
the course
of the past little while; ever since I bought my new deep fat fryer.  I
am a fairly well seasoned JAWS user, having used it since the advent of
version 4.2 way back in 2002; when I made my very first purchases at Amazon
on the date of July 22nd 2002.  I was a mere web novice back in  those days;
and, I can tell you that if Amazon had been as sluggish back then as it now
is, I'd have been quite disheartened.  To speak candidly, I fail to see how
Amazon is improving.  That's why I feel it will be interesting to see how
the site changes over the course of time between now and June 30th.  if 
Amazon doesn't get on with it and get it
done, I suspect we'll be playing rather rough.

    Sincerely yours,
The Constantly Barefooted,
Ray

Me either. Amazon is one the most accessible sites on the web.
