You have no idea how it could be made useful for the visually impaired, in the first page of the thread i posted a link to a bunch of ideas.

I second the suggestion of symbian. My e71 for example has a (built-in) application that actually speaks menus as you browse them. (at least the more important ones) also a no touchscreen qwerty device (or even number keypad with disabled t9) could proveto be much more useful - in that line you might want to check the e52, e72 and e5. I hope the app I'm talking about is still included with the newer symbians.

How about advanced-power on pr 1.3? After installing it I could no longer see my battery candle on the home screen.

get an iPhone, that's obviously something for blind people not able to see s**t in front of them.

yeah, that's what I said, get an iPhone. Personally though, I'm not blind, deaf, lame and above all, not dumb, that's why I got my N900.
Geez, trying to be funny on account of handicapped people here and then you get serious on me. It's so boring...there are no REAL mean people left in this world.
Maybe Stevie could market the iPhone from that angle, it's more honest I think. "If you're handicapped somehow, we got the phone just for you".

n900 is probably the most blind unfriendly deviuce due to the congifuration fiddling u have to do, all of which require sight
if u r blind u want something that works - u wont br ocing or coding
