[Blindtlk] caller ID

[Graves, Diane]

Nikki,

I don't know that I am the appropriate person to answer your question, but I am wondering what you might intend to use the device for? For instance, are you thinking of being able to access TTY calls or something like that, or what would you do with a Braille display attached to a regular phone? I am asking because, if what you want is a caller ID, there are several talking devices that you can get. I hope I am not appearing too ignorant here, but other than the caller ID and the possible TTY, I'm not sure what you would do with a display on a landline.

Thanks,

Hi,
I don't want to be negative, but I doubt that such device exists, 
at least here in America.  Let us pray though, that such device 
could exist in the future with screen reader built-in option on 
all home phones, and with Braille support.  I wonder if countries 
such as UK or new zealand have such devices?

display device for your home phone or land line? If so, does it 
have talking option?

question for cell phones.  I’m talking about the land line in 
your house.  Does such a device exist?
