To date TWC has been totally blind and deaf when it comes to
accessibility. And unfortunately, the TWC Comcast merger is dead.

Hi Ray,

Thanks for your response.  Unfortunately we are only permitted to have
Time Warner where we live.

  While there are some televisions out there which do in fact have voice
output with speech, none of them will quite do what you want.  IF you
can get Comcast, I'd go with their X1 service because the Voice Guidance
service is more complete in what it provides than any of the stand alone
models out there.

    Hello,

    I am in the market for a new television, and am wondering if anyone
uses an accessible tv with the voice guidance feature.  If so, which
brand and model do you have.  What are your impressions of voice
guidance -- pros and cons?  Also, does it work with a tv connected to a
cable box?  Also, are you able to stream Netflix or use it with Apple
TV?

    Thanks,
    Sarah
