[blparent] accessible cell phones?

[Pickrell, Rebecca M (IS)]

Because, I don't know who will be reviewing the application. 
I don't want the data package, and I don't have a need to see a doctor
so taking a form to one is a waste of their time, as well as my time. 
And, I dislike the tone of your message. 
I am asking what options are out there which don't require me to take a
half day of leave to see a doctor I don't need to see, so that I can
send medical information to an unknown person with unknown
qualifications, and hope that they will see fit to opt me out of a
packaging I don't even want.

I use an Iphone with AT&T. and I'm sorry but what is up with not telling
AT&T that you are blind by proving it, I mean its as simple as taking a
form
to a doctor just verifying your blind. No other details. What are you so
paranoid about?

Subject: [blparent] accessable cell phones?

Hi guys. 
I don't know if this offtopic for this list or not. 
Anyway, I'm thinking I want an accessable cell phone and am trying to
decide between AT&T and Verizon. We have Verizon and our contract is up.
A trip to the Verizon store and a talk on their phone about accessable
options was to say the least not very confidence enspiring. I had to
tell the Verizon lady on the phone and the guy at the store about Talks,
both seemed unaware of it. 
AT&T seems to have a phone with Mobilespeak that will do what I want. 
Does anybody on this list know anything about either plan or option and
have any feedback? 
AT&T says if I give them proof of my blindness they will take the data
package off the phone with Mobilespeak. I am not a big cell phone user,
don't really want the data package, but nor do I want to give AT&T any
medical info. 
All I want is a phone where I can add contacts, use menus and know who's
calling. 
Thoughts?
