[nabs-l] Accessible phone

Mon Apr 11 04:25:52 UTC 2011

I love my Samsung Haven!  It's great.  I used to have a smart phone
with Mobile speak, and it froze all the time.  This phone is great.
It tells me if I don't have service and if the battery is low.  I
really love it!  I wouldn't get an Iphone for anything.  This is
simple to use and has no touch screen.  It also doesn't cost as much.
Perfect.
