I don't know if you are aware but on the market there is a AT&T Mobile
accessibility lite and it does somewhat the same thing for free.  The only
thing is you need to switch back to Talkback or Spiel if you use any aps
besides the 10 aps in the shell.

Subject: [Electronics-talk] AT&T Inspiration, and Galaxy two Cell Phones

Good morning,
With some friends, recently, I went to RadioShack, and one of my friends
bought the Inspiration accessible cell phone from AT&T without having to
change the family plan. My friend will pay $30 extra due to the fact that
now he is able to use the Internet on his Inspiration cell phone. Without
the family plan, the Inspiration phone would have cost him $500.
Recently, another friend got the AT&T accessible Galaxy Two cell phone.
As for the talking part, on either one of the two phone mentioned, there
were two choices.
They could either go with Code Factory, the company from Barcelona, Spain
who services the United States, and use their talking program for complex
needs, and which costs a one time $100, or they could use the talking
program, Talk Back.
Talk Back is for free, but with less accessibility, however, the program
seems to be pretty good. It depends on the person's needs.
Once the Inspiration cell phone was bought, the RadioShack representative
installed gmail on the Inspiration cell phone, and then went to the Talk
Back market, and found something called, Library, or Library Engine, and
download Talk Back. At first, the representative was having trouble finding
the Library thingy on the Internet, but she got it.
My friend also got a case, very important, so that the new screen will be
protected from being scratched. It was bought for $15, but, with a rebate of
$10, and if he fills out the survey on the Internet, he will get another $15
back.
According to the representative at RadioShack, it is harder to get used to
an Apple iPhone than an android Inspiration phone, or an android Galaxy Two
phone, if you are a Windows user.
One advantage of the iPhone, though, is Voiceover, which means that the
iPhone talks right out of the box.
