Thank you Sharon. There are features which are necessary for this product and the Word capability is one of them. As Scot said, HTML capability is another one for E-mail. I get some E-mail that way and it just gets deleted because I can't read it on my VN. There are other ways to get radio other than the BN family directly and Sharon is certainly correct in that point. If you want radio, take one with you or use the Internet.
With regard to the TTY feature, this is something that the competition offers and also something which members of the deaf-blind community have been screaming for for years now. This discussion is at least 3-4 years old with no real response to date. Also, in the United States many people get their units through State Rehab either for school or employment and these units need to be used for that purpose. Now, if you buy it on your own, then how you use it is your business. Some of us are offering opinions about features, not complaining. There is a differnce. Thank you and take care. **All outgoing messages scanned using Norton Antivirus 2006.
