Let me try and clarify a few points here: 1. iPhone 3G (which is still available in India) is not accessible at all. So, just forget about.
2. iPhone 3GS is also available in India and it has VoiceOver and Zoom functionality. VoiceOver is a full-fledged screen reader and provides access to most of the built-in apps and third-party apps. It does not provide limited access. 3. As far as I am aware, SayText may only work with the new iPhone 4 and not with any other models. I may be wrong but I don't thing the camera on the 3GS and 3G is sufficient for OCR. Look at www.maccessibility.net for reviews of the iPhone 3GS.

However, am told that Voice Over is not fully functional on iPhone 3GS. 1. Is it true that VoiceOver works only to get some contacts and operate music in iPhone 3Gs bought in India? 2. If not, pl let me know how best I or anyone buying iPhone 3GS in India can make the best use of VoiceOver and by extension Say Text. Quick response is appreciated since I need to do it faster.
