ABC mobile web site fails accessibility test

As reported over at Crikey today, this is pretty embarrassing for the ABC.
The Australian Broadcasting Corporation launched “ABC Mobile” yesterday. Unfortunately, the home page does not appear to have been designed in accordance with guidelines for web accessibility for the disabled and may be unlawful.
The site was tested using the Test Accessibility Web tool, against the WAI guidelines and found to have 1 Priority 1, 14 Priority 2 and 1 Priority 3 problems with the page, with the priority 1 problem being the obviously the most egregious and embarrassing, but also the most easily fixed - no usable alt text on the main navigation menu of the site. Ooops.
I think it’s actually more worrying though that at a dedicated mobile site, the W3C mobileOK Checker only scored them at 79/100 on mobile compatible tests.
