Small phone icon--what is it?

My boss has got a small icon showing up on the top right hand corner of his new iPhone 5. It looks like a handset with some dots below it. Can anyone tell me what this means? Thanks!

iPhone 5, iOS 6

It means TTY (a service for the non-hearing world) is turned on in Accessibility.

Sounds like the TTY symbol ().

Tap Settings > Phone, slide TTY to Off to get rid of it.
