Well, that is the difference between usability and full accessibility.

Really, we should not have to pay a third party company to make these
devices accessible in the first place. The apple macintosh is a good example
of this, apple has built a fully functioning screen reader in to the
operating system, you don't pay anything extra to make it accessible. Other
companies such as Nokia, Microsoft and others should be doing the same with
these phones, and really GPS manufacturers should be doing this too. Most
GPS units already have text to speech in them, so it could be done, they
just need to make it speak all output and provide an interface for the touch
screen. These other companies should be building the accessibility in to the
products from the ground up.
