Orca has allot of future promise as a screen reader. Some of it's major 
advantages over gnopernicus is being able to be scripted for apps that 
are not behaving correctly, and it's flat review keys are better as well.

Yes. The flat review mode works just about in every application and can 
give you a pretty good  layout of the screen and has good navigation of 
toolbars and menubars.
The only two exceptions I can think of are Firefox and Thunderbird where 
flat review doesn't work at all. Although, most of the time using 
standard application keys is good enough to get around the app.
