semantics aside,
JAWS and HPR do a repair for the <abbr> and <acronym> elements to allow them
be read/spoken, based on user configuration, even though IE does not
recognize <acronym>.
JAWS can/must (depending on default setting which seem to change with each
version) be configured to read/speak either <abbr> or <acronym> or both.
For HPR the setting is both or neither.
Anyone know about WindowEyes or SuperNova/HAL?
