[Electronics-talk] Accessible Phones for Verizon

Thu Sep 9 03:09:45 UTC 2010

Where is this 150 character limit imposed? Is that imposed by the phone or
Verizon? I thought most texting applications and services allowed you to
spread messages across multiple text messages.

Yeah, but, with a character limit of 150 per message, I don't think so.

Does verizon even have any model of accessible cell phone on the market 
where users have access to all levels of menus?  Whenever I had a Verizon 
phone in the past, I could only go down just so far on menu levels and 
then the accessibility stopped; there was no speech or menu choices beyond 
that point.  Another problem with verizon phones I had was no useable apps 
for the phones that were accessible either.  This was also true for AT&T 
phones until I got my IPhone 3gs then all of those problems went away. 
Best money I ever spent on a cell phone in my life!On Fri, 16 Apr 2010,
