I think Firefox is open source but I may be mistaken. if you are prepared to spend time setting up X and GNOME, you can use Gnopernicus to get an idea of what FireFox is like. Gnopernicus will give you access to the GNOME desktop, and a bit of access in FireFox. FireFox has a carrot browsing mode, which basically allows you to move a cursor round reading by line, etc. However, it doesn't as yet handle complex site layouts, such as tables. It it turned on by the F7 key, however the dialog that you get the first time is not read out either, so there is still a lot of work to do.
