Heya!
Okay so I realize that caller ID has been around for some time and that I'm just a tad behind. I decided to take the plunge and modernize a bit. I have signed up with my phone company to get Caller ID service. Now I need one of those spiffy talking caller ID thingymobobbers. What do you all recommend?
I have your garden variety Wal-mart cordless phone with built in answering machine. It does have a display screen for caller ID for the sighted family. I think I want a talking caller ID unit that will work from phone to phone. We tend to need to replace the phone every other year or so. Can I get such a thing or are they all built into the phone? What is a good brand? Are there other features that I might need or want that you'd recommend? And finally who has the best prices?
I'm familiar with most of the major blindness product companies. I really want to know what works well and what doesn't. And probably most important is that I do not have a degree in rocket science or brain surgery, so easy installation is a must!
TIA
Julie
