Cellphone concept for blind people

There are zero details, none, nada. All we know is Peter Lau designed this for people who can’t see, hence why the thing doesn’t have a screen, but how will blind people learn how to use this?
No matter how bad your day is remember that you can see, you can hear, you have food in your house and hopefully you don’t have any STD’s. Then anything that might be considered “troubling” is just laughable. No offense to starving blind and deaf people with AIDS.

Belive it or not, as you can type on a keybord without looking at it, you can do this on a phone.
Today most blind people use a super high tech nokia, because of the resource hungry, s60 3rd only speech and braille software (yes you can add a braille display to a phone).
These phones cost a lot so a low end phone that would allow blinds to use txt mesages would be very appreciated.
hi, my boyfriend went blind 2 yrs ago due to having a tumour on his brain, he is now trying to find a stylish 5 mega pixle mobile phone with sat nav on it an a memory card slot, and bluetooth an text to speach so it will read the txts an things on the phone. if there is any way of u getting back in touch to let me no if u can help that would be great.
thank you for your time,
ashley scott.

My name is Nicolas.
I have cellular nokia of the series 60, Nokia 6600 and 3620, which are compatible with Talks, since they have operating system Symbian. Talks is a reviser of screen capable of describing, with a clear voice, everything what appears in the display.
Reads messages of texts, files of texts, web pages, contacts, numbers, letters, symbols, etc.
Probably this information could be useful to blind persons and also to diminished visual.
Well, contact me.
