Mike,

I agree with your suggestion of switching between JAWS and NVDA.  In 
addition, I switch between Internet Explorer and Firefox.  Recently, trying 
to fill out a form for a free product sample, one of the browser/screen 
reader combinations wouldn't show me some of the places to enter my info, so 
I would gets messages regarding errors.  Fortunately, doing some switching 
did solve the issue.  By the way, audible.com is changing their site and has 
a link that is supposed to give more access.  Audible.com is owned by 
Amazon.
