Are there any screen readers that support Flex content?

(that's not rhetorical; if anyone knows of one, I'd like to know)

Yes, Flash Player has sent text to the big two (JAWS and WindowEyez) since 2002 or so, and is also supporting an opensource screenreader effort: http://blogs.adobe.com/accessibility/2009/08/adobe_supports_...

(I think Apple may have finally added an API which browser plugins can access for their text-to-speech, but I'm not sure how many people have moved over there yet.)
