That's quite a touching account. On a whim, I enabled VoiceOver on my iPhone (I'm sighted), and I must say I'm quite blown away.

I recommend you try it if you aren't aware of this feature. It's easily enabled in the system Settings app (look for Accessibility). Just remember that when VoiceOver is active icons/buttons will require double taps instead of single taps, and you need to use triple-touch to scroll in menus or between home screens.

I'm sure that as a sighted person with no context I'm completely missing any nuance in the way this feature is implemented, but even handicapped so, it is quite impressive.
