Hmmm, not me, I'm very arrogant and outlandish so I doubt I'll change much.

The I phone I admit is not perfect but neither are a million other products but yet most are usable with a little forethought, at the present stage the Ip phone cannot be used by a totally blind person because of the nature of its design and in a previous message I posted a way that this problem could be rectified. I also said that if you went to the pages pertaining to the I Phone, you could bring up the Accessability pages and you would discover that many accessability features have been built-in to help people including people with low vision, deafness etc. I'll be perfectly frank with all of you, as I'm deaf-blind, I may consider purchasing this phone in the future for the main benefit of accessing its "TTY" capabilities. Obviously I'm not going to waste my money until I find out how these work but as I use a "TTY" allot of my time then this feature (assuming I can get it to work somehow) will be highly useful for my communications needs etc. On 19/07/2007, at 11:38 PM, Keith Gillard wrote: Yup. If your visually impaired you might be able to squint and see the phone. Just another way to burn out what vision you may have left. It's really too bad though, as a simple MP3 talk clip style TTS of each menu and function would make this phone a real option for blind folk...Keith ----- Original Message ----- From: "Dane Trethowan" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "PC audio discussion list.
