The best bet will be to ask the particular cable companies under 
consideration since you don't want to spend money on a cable box then 
discover you bought a model and/or brand incompatible with the cable 
carrier you selected.  Many areas have no choice as to cable carrier in 
the United states at least.

If you get someone who claims to be a technician and goes clueless as soon 
as you mention accessibility, it's time to get their supervisor on the 
phone and maybe get to the real technical department.
