[Electronics-talk] looking for an accessible phone without buying a screen reader

[Grover Zinn]

If you want more on accessible Verizon phones with and without  
texting, go to the list:

BlindusersVerizonPhones at yahoogroups.com

This list was formerly about only LG phones, but  other phones were  
being discussed so they changed the list name.  Some very informed  
people on that list.

As already said in this thread, if you do not need texting LG8650 is  
the most accessible phone out there, as far as I know.

best
