I and others have been asking for almost a year now with no success.  Google and it's eyes-free project don't take input from users.  Even bug reports with there existing projects are ignored.
That was why I was hoping mozilla would have better luck.  At this point, I'll be happy with a self voicing firefox.  Anything to get web access on Android.
Because I can't afford to change phone companies, the iPhone isn't currently an option.  I'm stuck with Android.
