Question Any program that will read Text messages outloud

Does anyone know of a program that will read out your text message instead of having to read it. My buddy has a mogul/titan and just recently lost most of his eyesight so it is hard for him to read text message and other stuff. But he pretty much knows his way around the phone and uses the voice command to do pretty much anything on this mogul/titan. He can also see some of the stuff but its blurry to him so reading a text message is extremly hard. So I told him let me find out on this forum I visit if anyone knows of a program that will read the text messaging for you.

Thanks to all..

Microsoft Voice Command is nice. My friend uses it, and he likes it a lot. I have never personally tried it, though.
