Great story about the new cellphone that takes photos and scans the written labels so that the content can read aloud back to a blind person!

NPR: Cell Phone Reads to the Blind - I love this especially since my mother is blind and within the next ten years I too will be blind.

From the page: "A new cell phone offers the smallest text-to-speech reading device ever built, a device especially useful for people with impaired vision. The phone and software come with a $2,000 price tag. If you have normal vision and can read, there are thousands of things you do every day without even thinking even about it, little problems you solve with just a glance â€" like knowing which coffee bag in a hotel is caffeinated or decaf."
