[blindkid] cell phones

[Jan Wright]

The difference, Sandy, is that you got the software from AT&T.
The company sells it for a different price.
AT&T has a promotion that if you have an accessible phone, they will sell it for $89  with tax.
If you buy mobile speaks direct from the company who makes it, it is more.
It is important to get a good software, and also make sure that you have a phone that will support that software.
Talks and mobile speaks are the two leading softwares.
AT&T use to support talks, but now supports Mobile speaks.
This talking software works with symbian based phones and can work with smart phones.
But, if you have verizon or Sprint or another smaller company, it might not support symbian based phones.

Someone mentioned their daughter needing a cell phone.
I would ask:
1. what company are you already with? Who is your cellular provider?
Your options might be limited depending on your provider.
