I would beg to disagree with your last statement, as the iPhone is very 
accessible, and can do so much more than any talks phone I have seen.

also with a nokia phone and talks you can access your wireless lan
either using a third party software package or by defining remote
drives  So a nokia phone talks package allows you to access your lan
as if it were a laptop.  Apple phones only access the internet on your lan.
I listen to the start of a book on my pc and if it sounds good copy
it to the phone.
for accessibility nothing comes close to a nokia phone with a tactile
qwerty keyboard and talks.
