   I don't use web kit as of yet.  I have not had much of a problem with Safari 
as it is now.  I am wondering if the reported problems have to do with hardware 
configurations as much as Safari.  Yes, some websites can be a problem, but I 
often find that it is related to the design and its interaction with Safari and 
not strictly a VoiceOver issue.
