Thanks Alan, I think I have a line on the perfect speaker for what I want to use it for. It is small, pairs with the push of one button and has a clip which you can attach to a strap or on your collar. It is called the Tadpole because of it’s shape so it might also be a source of conversation. Actually, I usually find it easy to begin conversations since I am, by nature a Chatty Cathy. But since I am now retired, 72 and a widow it is always good to have new things to talk about. The name of the supplier is Guidelighyts and Gadgets and one of the owners is named Barry. Both he and his partner are blind so they use the things they sell. If you have any need for speakers, headphones etc., I can give you some contact info. Their prices are competitive and they have some interesting gadgets. Marie

It's a ball about 2 inches high with a 4 inch wire sticking out ending in a 3.5 Mm jack. The speaker comes with a charging cable which ends in a USB plug for recharging the speaker. The sound quality is good enough for spoken word audio books or NLS books. On a full charge, the speaker gives around 8 hours battery life. In my opinion, there are other choices. The round ball when not being recharged or plugged in can be easily knocked off a desk or nightstand. Even a small fold out foot would of fixed the short coming. If your willing to put up with that minor issue it's a nice talking point and may even help you meet new friends. Where the H**l did you get that they may ask and pow! new conversation leading to your marrage and 6 kids. Or not!

I have tried the Aftershoz headphones but do not care for them. sometime back someone posted about a very small bt speaker which could be clipped to a collar or strap for use with the IPhone. I would appreciate any ideas about this . Thanks, Marie -- The following information is important for all members of the viphone list. All new members to the this list are moderated by default.
