I'll look into that, this could be handy. I know someone is actively working on an OcR package for smart phones such as the N70, it will work like the NFB reader, that is you hold the phone over a page of text and press the camera button butt one thing at a time as I'm going off-topic.

There are ones for the Pac Mate, which is basically the pocket PC platform, and if you have a phone that runs on that it should almost be able to be installed. As for phones like the n70 and such that run on the simbion, I thought there already was one. I could be wrong but I remember reading somewhere or hearing on a podcast about a daisy reader for the phone.
