Hello,
There is a list for the Braille Plus 18, but on that list it is
called the
Orion.
Orion-discuss-request at freelists.org?subject=subscribe
Here is an article on it as well:

Hello,
I believe the only phone built especially for the blind, by the
blind, is
the Braille Plus 18 coming out from APH in a little while...
That will have Sim Card support on release with more carriers
put in as
time goes on.
Thank you,
Brandon Keith Biggs

Hi Tyler,
Have you seen a phone with a Braille display? What do they look
like? Do
they have print numbers that show up when the speach is turned
off? I
think I understand the hole explaining specialized equipment for
the
blind t lay people. It is not easy. Laugh out loud

Thanks for the psychological diagnosis. I've accepted my
blindness and
all that. Yes, they make you look blind. You have a normal phone
with a
bunch of dots on the screen and if anyone sighted wants to turn
off
voiceover and use it, it's kind of weird.

makes them look blind then they are not yet ready to except
their
blindness.

IPhone.
I wanted to avoid jumping on the band wagon, but I love it.
As an alternative, you can get talkx or uh, the other one on a
nokia
phone, or you can get an android. They're nice, but they've got
a lot
of issues. IPhone is the most advanced in terms of
accessibility, IMO.
And you don't need braille overlays, they just get in the way
and make
you look well, blind.

I've never heard of it.
Just get the IFone, with the Braille overlay, and you'll be
fine.
Blessings, Joshua

Hi all,
I am checking out phones. Has anyone heard of the LG My Touch Q?
If
so, is it accessible? I talked to the carrier which is Teen
Mobil,
but I have had situations in which the carrier will say
something is
accessible or has speech capabilities and they do not and vice
versa.
Thanks for any help you can give.
Gloria
