Here's what Blind Bargains has to say about the K-NFB Reader app.  I'd
forgotten that it also has Dropbox support.

A K-NFB Reader app is coming to the iPhone, and will be available in the app
store by the end of August. This according to a presentation by Jim Gashel
of K-NFB Reading Technology, who also announced a $99 price point for the
app. This is 10 percent of the cost for the previous version which ran on
Nokia phones. IN demonstrations, the app was reading text within about 2
seconds of the picture being taken including a Powerpoint slide from 25 feet
away. Text navigation, Dropbox support, and the ability to turn business
cards into contacts are a few of the features included in this new version.
We'll post more information on this forthcoming app as we learn it.
