Hi All,

I have just learned that the new phone by Verizon that has the TALKS program 
installed is listed as either a PDA or Smart Phone.  It has a Qwerty 
keyboard and the buttons are very small too say the least.  I learned of the 
keyboard layout from a friend that can see, not from anything I read on the 
Verizon website.  This might work for someone with low vision but, for the 
totally blind this is an attempt to make an inaccessible phone accessible. 
I know other companies offer cell phones with screen reading programs but, I 
would prefer to stay with Verizon because of poor service in our area with 
other providers.  I just wanted to let anyone know that is looking to 
purchase the Verizon Motorola Q 9c TALKS phone what they are in for.  Again, 
nowhere in my reading did I read anything about this particular phone using 
a Qwerty keyboard.  I'll just have to stick with my LG4650 until something 
comes along that works as a totally accessible phone without camera, video 
recorder, internet service, and all that other crap that I will never use. 
Whatever happened to just getting a functional cell phone?  Long winded but, 
done!  Take care.
Mike
