 Hello Andy and list,

 My wife and I got this phone Thursday!  It certainly isn't 
perfect but
 much better than the LG offerings from VZW.

A friend of mine recently bought a new cell phone from Verizon 
Wireless.
 It is called the Samsung haven.  It is apparently a basic no 
frills cell
 phone, but he says that all menus and functions speak.  You can 
get it on
 an upgrade for $39, or for $169 if you are not eligible for an 
upgrade,
 or are a new VZW customer.  He did say that the speech seems to 
drain
 the battery faster, but there is a long life battery that you 
can get
 for $45.  Considering that model runs for cell phones seem to be 
getting
 shorter and shorter, you might want to snatch this one up pretty 
soon if
 you are interested.  With the eminent passage of the 21st 
Century
 Communications and Video Accessibility Act, you will probably 
soon see
 an increase in offerings of accessible phones.  It is possible 
that
 Samsung is being proactive here.

 Andy
