Larry, First of all, welcome to the Verizon family once the merger is 100 percent done that is. Well, there are 2 software packages for cell phones that are accessible. The Talks program and Mobile speak program. These to opperate on the GSM network which Altel has and runs on phones that run the Simbian operating system. Now Verizon and Sprint run on the CDMA network. None of the above will work with CDMA. LG does make a few models of somewhat accessible phones. Hope this helps.

Hi folks, I am an all tel subscriber and would like to know what if any of the speech accessible phones and software packages are available on their network. I really don't understand the nexus between hardware and network capability. My pea brain tells me that if for example a particular phone is accessible on one network it should be accessible on all networks, this however does not appear to be the case. Any help you folks can provide in untangling this mess would be greatly appreciated. BTW What the hell is an unlocked phone and should I care?
