[Electronics-Talk] accessible TV

[Arlene]

hahahahahahahaha, you're funny. Tracy, I was just curious since my friend 
that lives in the bronx has optimum. I'm not sure of she has the talking 
box. My dad's cable was under cablevixion in plainview, long island. Then I 
think it was about a year ago or 2 that I read about altice taking over. 
When it was any of these different names, how was the service with the 
talking box. I hope for you it's something like comcast or like cox that we 
have.  ----- Original Message -----
