[Electronics-Talk] Spectrum 110 Cable Box

[Gerald Levy]

Does the remote control that comes with the Spectrum 110 have buttons that 
are easy to identify by size and shape?  ?  Or are the buttons of similar 
shapes and sizes so that they are difficult to distinguish by touch?  My 
current Spectrum remote has buttons of different sizes and shapes and they 
are arranged in a logical layout.  The numeric keys are shaped like the 
numerals themselves, making this a great remote for a blind consumer.  But 
if the buttons on the Spectrum 110 remote are not well differentiated and 
thus difficult to identify by touch, then there would be little point in 
upgrading to this box.

Sherri,

Just call the Spectrum accessibility line and they'll step you through the
process.  Within an hour of my call, I was up and running with 2 boxes.  You
may not have that kind of luck as far as speed is concerned, but you will
get the box.  I am surprised that the existance of the box was not
publicized more.  I only found out about it when I read Peter's post.  One
thing to keep in mind is if you already have the Roku that Sectrum provides,
you will have to give it up if you want the new box.
Enjoy!
Andy
