Hey, maybe I missed the question.
This is software one loads on your phone, you take a picture of the document
you want to read, the phone does its magic with OCR and reads the document
to you. Like a portable scanner and text recognition software, all on your
mobile phone. I heard something about it being the same as the KNFB reader.
Quite expensive though, in the region of 750 Euro.

So what will happen if you load this on a Nokia 6210?
Anyone know?

Dear TextScout friends,
we've released a beta english demo so you can try out TextScout for yourself
now. You can download the software here:
http://www.textscout.eu/en/reading-phone/demo-version
Please remember that this is a beta release, so if any problems during
installation or use occur, report them to us. You can activate a demo
license during installation which will be valid for two weeks. The manual
has not yet been translated to english but we've translated an english
quick-start guide to get you started.
All the best from germany and have fun with TextScout!
Christian
