I think I like this, but when I was watching the video, they talked about 
stuff down at the bottom of the page, and I couldn’t find anything.  I don't 
do facebook, so I can't do anything there.  Pam.

There's a video on the main page,

http://www.blindshell.com <http://www.blindshell.com/>

you just need to arrow down until you find a play button,

I received an email about the new blind shell phone, it's a button phone and
actually as you'll read here, there's 2 phones, I think the other phone is a
touch screen phone. If you're interested in hearing about it, even for
curiosity to hear about it, there's a youtube video on the main page of the
web site, done by Sam who does a great job with telling about the phone. It
sounded like our modo g android, meaning the voice, which is a pleasant
sounding voice. This phone is sold in many countries and in several
languages. It will be in the united states some time this summer. I would
love to get one of these phones. I'm just finding out about this phone
today, so when the phone gets here in the states, I don't know what carrier
it will be on. After I give you the site, I copied information from the
blind shell page to read about it, besides the places where you can buy the
phone and all the details. Anyway, here's first the main web address for the
site is www.blind <http://www.blind> shell.com

the phone costs $299, which is kind of
expensive, but if you prefer a button phone for all that this one does I
think it's well worth it. There's some phones, such as the kyozera dura xv
from verizon that costs about $264 and doesn't do all that this phone does.
BlindShell Classic

For the past few years, we were working on the best style of control of a
mobile phone for the blind. We sold to tens of countries over the globe and
reached thousands of customers. Now we are introducing the best of what the
world of mobile phones for the blind can offer.

Voice control

With voice control you can give the phone voice commands without having to
use the keypad! You can do following, and more:

Calling and sending a message to a contact

Opening any application in the phone

Getting information about weather

Getting your location. Address and GPS

Voice dictation

Instead of using the keypad to input text, just simply say it. The phone
will write it down as a text! Among others, you can use voice dictation for
these actions:

SMS dictation

Email dictation

Taking notes

Dictating your agenda

Physical keyboard

This phone has physical keyboard! Big, well spaced tangible buttons. We
wanted the BlindShell Classic to have a premium keypad, and we believe that
we succeeded. Operating the phone is again as comfortable as it used to be
before the smartphone era. It is hard to describe the feeling in words, one
just has to try it!

The spacing between the keys makes orientation on the keypad very easy, so
you will be able to distinguish between the keys right away. No need to
fumble with your fingers around to find the right button. No need to be
worried about pressing the wrong button either.

Highlights

Object tagging

By using a special stickers you can label objects around you. Teach your
phone what objects are the labels attached to, and easily recognize them
later by using your phone. You can either record a short voice message, or
enter a written description. One set of labels is supplied with the phone!

Many useful applications

Object tagging isn't the only amazing application you can use. Another is
the Email  client, with which you can write and receive emails from your
friends and colleagues. With Internet radio  you can listen to thousands of
radio stations from around the world.
Weather
app will tell you the current weather and forecast for next three days. If
you are unsure about the place where you currently are, use the Location
app, which will tell you your current GPS location and a nearest address.

SOS emergency button

If you get to a situation where a quick help from someone else is needed,
you can use the SOS emergency button. Pressing the button for at least 3
seconds will call your emergency contact. (This contact can be set whenever
you want). The outgoing emergency call have to be confirmed by you, so you
do not need to worry about making the call accidentally.

Applications & features

BlindShell Classic is packed with features! But you do not need to be
afraid, that you will be overwhelmed. It is only up to you which
applications will you use. You can just make calls and send messages, and
nothing else. But, if you want to use the full potential of the phone, there
is nothing in your way to make to most out of it.
