Re: finally, a talking Nextel phone for the Blind

Hi Harry:

The obvious question, since this phone has built in text to speech, is
it like the LG phones where you have access to some but not all features
and functions?  Do you have a link to a website where one can read more
about this phone?

Thanks,

Subject: [VICUG-L] finally, a talking Nextel phone for the Blind

Hi all,
For those of you who are Nextel or Sprint customers, it's finally here.
The Motorola I580.  This phone comes with build in text to speech,
(TTS).
Now, of course, with this kind of phone, you're gonna have to pay alot.
It's very ruggid, you can use it inside, outside, in the rain, you name
it.
The price is $400
So, those of you who use Sprint or Nextel, your phone is finally here.
I don't know what the upgrade policy is, if you're already using a phone
with Sprint or Nextel, but, it is available at any Sprint/Nextel phone
store, locally.
If you want to know more, call 800-453-0920 take care, Harry
