Ok Both my Brother and Father are legally blind. They both like their Ipods due to the option to speak the menu options as you scan though.
They are planning to see if the iPhone supports such an option.
I am wondering what it would take to add something to the N900 that would support this.
I think the option should work like this.
When you select an icon or menu option etc it reads a tool tip / alt text through flite or some other speach processor. then a second press activates it.
Anyone have any other ideas how this could be implemented.
I think a service like this would have use for sighted people as well. When driving for example. Reading out contact names would also be useful.
