It sounds to me like this phone might be of benefit to elderly people who have 
lost a lot of sight.

  Hi,

   

  It is not a new phone, it is a suite of apps that runs on Android phones.

   

  Check it out here:-

  But remember, Android is already accessible, so you don't need it, unless you 
are not comfortable using the phone in its native state.

   

  Come see us at Sight Village next week, to learn more about Android 
accessibility, especially with the new Jellybean operating system.  These are 
exciting times, since not only do we have Symbian now, but Android and iPhone.

   

  Google and Apple have done a great job with accessibility and continue to 
improve.

   

  All the best

   

  Steve

  My brother in Australia heard a report from England that a new mobile phone, 
with lots of bells an whistles, was launched last Thursday in London.

  Does anybody know anything about it?
