Abdul does make some very good points and to not drag this topic needlessly out of shape, Sprint just reported loosing 300,000 customers in the last couple of months. Cingular on the other hand seems to be growing rapidly. I switched from Verizon Wireless to Spring, and right over to Cingular for lots of reasons, but partly cause I wanted something accessible. Now one item I'd like to mention, Cingular does have a National Center for Customers with DIsabilities. Verizon Wireless who was sued years ago sure hasn't done a damned thing to improve accessibility and in fact has gone the other direction. If your interested in Cingular service, they do offer the Nokia 6620 which is an older phone, but they still offer it with Talks, call 1-866 241-6568 for more details. My point I guess in this entire topic is that choose what works best for you and if accessibility is that important, then you may have to settle for the carrier who offers the most phones which can run Mobile Speak for example.

The good thing is, at least there are options, five years ago the options were considerably slimmer.
