anyone used any phones (new or old) through verizon with hal Screene reader and windows mobile? impression, tips? suggestions?
i'm curious. i'd like to stick with hal cause it has elaquence. i'm stickin with verizon, and i'm thinkin a windows mobile phone might be good becasue it would most resemble what i'm useing, mainly windows on a laptop, and the PAC Mate.
I'm sure the Screene reader will be different to get used too, but i'm at least familyea with today screene's etc.
i'm also looking for a phone with a QWERTY keyboard. GPS is optional. might the moldarola q be an option? i don't much care if the phone is new or old either. this is something i'm looking into.
Thanks all for everyone's suggestions.

heck I have a Q I will sell to you for about $50, please run away with it and do not return with it.
I don't think pocket rpheus. Talks uses eloquence, and hal might, but I don't think so.al has only
Does Hal even work with Windows Mobile?
i thought i read it did from accessiblephones.com. and i know from some artical i came across from uh. what was it, accessible world or something like that? that the hal uses elaquence.
John
nuance talks also uses eloquence. but i don't know about the windows mobile.
yes howl does run in windows mobile. I have personal seen it run smile. If you want a current screenreader with the sane speach synth then talks for windows mobile will work.
Yes talks will work, but verizon does not support any talks phones.
Hense why i asked about Hal.

Is it me? or does Accessiblephones.com not been updated in forever? I know what kinda phone i'm interested in getting, mainly a windows mobile 6.0 phone, smart phone, that can supposrt hal, has wireless, a QWERTY keyboard, and no touch screen. do they make phones like that anymore? Thanks
John
Would the phone i be lookin at be able to use headphones, like a Mini plug type and be stereo?
that would bee the q 9c or something simular. you would have to go look on ebay.
but i thought the Q9C doesn't have wireless access.
John
It probly does not but can you name a phone that will run with the screenreader your looking fore? I googled howl let me tell ya its not easy to find.
Probably because you spelled it like a noise an angry wild animal makes instead of the real name. Try googling "Pocket Hal" instead. If you want information, go to
yourdolphin.com
to find information as that is the site of the company that makes this reader. I don't use any of their products.
Howl? I know someone who called MobileSpeak MumbleSpeaknowledge. Which it would be if you had Microsoft Sam on your phone.
I did go to the pocket hal website and nothing. It told me prodcut not found.
I looked up pocket hal and sorry, but... its not beeing updated from what I have noticed.
isn't dolphin working with talks now? that would explain why they don't have phone software. i used hal for a phone once, never do it. that's probably why they no longer support it. talks all the way, either that or iphone obviously which is what i'm getting
Iphone or moble speak all they way. I now own a HTC hd2 it is nice. It fast barely freezes on me. :)
