The Accessibility team at RIM is happy to share some updates since the launch of BlackBerry&reg; Screen Reader <http://blogs.blackberry.com/2012/05/blackberry-screen-reader/> . In addition to the BlackBerry® Curve™ 9350, 9360 and 9370 smartphone models, the application is now available for the BlackBerry® Curve™ 9320 and 9220 smartphones.
 
You can get the new version of BlackBerry Screen Reader at: www.blackberry.com/screenreader <http://www.blackberry.com/screenreader>

Wonder how it works on the web, can you read and interact with a page
and select items? Can you fill in forms?

At the moment it does appear only to be able to really read the
webpage. I can move around some, but it varies from page to page at
least this is what I have experienced so far. However, considering the
fact that the screen reader has indeed been updated, this is a good
sign that research in motion is committed to making this work and
making this more and more accessible for individuals who are blind. Hi
for one firmly believe that given a bit of time, BlackBerry will
indeed become a viable competitor to Apple, Google, Windows mobile and
all other accessible options out there presently.

Hi, has black berry done anything yet on this latest update to allow us to
install screen reader without sighted assistance?

Skype name: betoa221

Lists I run for the blind:
Accessible iOS http://groups.google.com/group/accessible-iOs

Accessible mac: http://groups.google.com/group/accessible-mac

[Loreal Lavigna]

I was actually able to complete the install without sighted
assistance. Apparently that error message that you and others have
received only appears when you have add-ons for your browser (Internet
Explorer) turn off or disabled. I had no problems whatsoever once I
figured out how to get the add-ons properly configured. Research in
motion did indicate that "no "they have not as of yet fixed the issue,
but for some reason I did not need sighted assistance or have the need
to download the application over the air from my BlackBerry's browser
it self. I still insist that given time, BlackBerry will indeed become
a viable competitor along with Apple's iPhone and Google's android
devices. Just give it time, and we will soon see. I have no doubt in
my mind.

Hi Loreal,

Can you give us some more details on what exactly you either enabled or disabled in terms of add-ons in your browser to enable the installation to work?

Also, what browser are you using, and what OS?

My understanding is that RIM are aware of this problem but don't at present know what is causing it or how to fix it. The fact that you got the web install to work however might indicate that they have made some progress in this regard.

I will be able to better answer your questions once I do get back home
and in front of my laptop. For the moment though right now, I did use
on my computer Internet explorer. As far as the operating system
version, I am using the latest BlackBerry operating system software on
my device. Three now hopefully this helps some. I will have more
information for you when I do return home.
