I've been following the discussion about the screen readers like Jaws
and IBM. How do Tablin and Lynx render a page?

Tablin:
http://www.w3.org/WAI/Resources/Tablin/form

Lynx:
http://www.delorie.com/web/lynxview.html

Do they read the page in a manner similar to how Jaws or IBM would
"speak" a page? If they render a page much like a text-to-speech reader
does, would this be a viable option? I guess nothing would replace
"speaking" a page, but it might be a good starting point.

I believe that is a good idea.
Special if you are testing your tables or page layout.
