In case you missed this press release:

 Java Enhanced for People with Disabilities
 
    MOUNTAIN VIEW, CA - July 23, 1997 -- Sun Microsystems, Inc.  today
    announced the preview specification for its Java Accessibility API,
    which will enable Java developers to write applications that many more of
    America's 40 million people with disabilities can immediately access and
    use.  The Java Accessibility API is designed to allow assistive
    technologies such as screen readers, screen magnifiers, speech recognition
    systems and Braille terminals to access Java applications.  It is
    available for public review at http://java.sun.com/products/jfc/.
