I did happen to purchase the phone from Capital Accessibility for $200 per phone. When I was with Sprint, I purchases a phone around that same price. The difference is I can do more with this phone that I could with the phone purchases from Sprint. I did hear through the grapevine that a cable can be purchased for the Owasys 22C, which will allow anyone who programs to write modules for the phone. This cable is available for $60. You can watch the phone boot up to Linux. You type in root to log in and dismiss the password field. This phone has potential for growth, especially if someone knows how to write programs that will work for us blinks. I wish I knew programming, but I don't. I can think of a lot of useful add-ons for the phone we currently don't have. ---------------- Got a problem with your assistive technology? Let Cutting Edge Solutions fix it!

Subject: Re: Owasys 22C Screenless Cellphone -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I saw one of these at the ACB convention last week. Except for the voice, the screenless phone has the functionality of the free phones provided when you get a contract with most companies, but at a price of $199 with 2-year contract with t-mobile. It's big, it's fat, and it is an extremely basic phone providing only a very few features that I have come to expect in a cell phone at less than half its price. Just my personal experience, Lorenzo - -- Everything will be just tickety-boo today. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.3 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFEuw8gG9IpekrhBfIRAnG4AJ9aRg1t9MnPwjbHK6G1erfC8XkRXwCeNM52 C/n2tbVJ1inexuV6e2K7q/s= =1qln -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Speakup mailing list Speakup at braille.uwo.ca http://speech.braille.uwo.ca/mailman/listinfo/speakup
