A phone without a screen reader is going to be pretty damn difficult for 
any blind user to do just about anything beyond make and receive calls.  

But yeah, a mate of mine has a Symbian screen reader application and 
spent a couple of days learning his keyboard layout.  He's now a demon 
texter, whereas before he used to just phone you when you sent him a 
text.

My brother's new Symbian phone seems to have a screen reader built-in.
