So very much thanks for sharing. My biggest problem is always the fact that I 
want to be outside whenever possible so I need something that I can activate 
relatively independently, i.e. Push the button on the blue tooth by myself. I 
am usually bouncing around as we don’t have a lot of nice smooth space, so 
things are moving around on my wheelchair, so I have not figured out yet how to 
push the button on anything. J Because I were a chin control model I am not 
able to use a mouthstick to press a button and then go to the computer etc as 
the chin controller gets in the way. So far we are doing fine with the system, 
but I am going to lock into switch control somehow for my computer microphone. 
Thanks for all the suggestions everyone.

Joan

I just wanted to share info about the Samsung galaxy 4 and 5 that I have found. 
Since I can't push any buttons I had been really searching for an alternative 
way of feeling safe at night. I have my galaxy 4 set up 4 S voice and hands 
free at night with voice activation. We plug it into charge and then place it 
face down on my chest so that the light does not bother me and anytime I need 
to call somebody or text somebody that I need help, I just have to say Hi 
Galaxy and I can do whatever. We're going to connect it to the wheelchair 
batteries so that I will also be able to use it for other things during the 
day. Right now during the day I use a Blueant Q3 which means I can answer all 
incoming calls etc but I have to be able to have someone push the button on the 
blueant to call out. However we just set up a folding wall clothes hangar with 
a push stick secured to it and with some practice I am able to push the button 
by myself most of the time! Yea for technology. Everybody have a great weekend.
