I found out about a completely accessible cell phone for the blind recently. no screen on it at all, and everything is spoken. Hopefully, I'll have it by next week. I'm so excited!

Are you talking about the oasys 22C screenless phone? I hope you like it. There is a topick about it in accessible electronicks. Most people didn't seam to like it but i think it is a good product. Only thing you won't be able to do is go on the internet with it and copy your mp3s on it. You will have to live with the ringtones provited. But you will have an accessible phone which sends and recieves texts and reads them to you, you will be able to add and find contacts and see who is calling you. And this is the most important thing on a phone in my oppinion lol. So good luck with it and when you get it tell us your oppinion.

get a headset for the dam thing, that's my advice. otherwise it will be screaming all over the joint. Oases phone is okay, but a bit plastic for me.

I might be getting one also. The cool thing I like is that the phone has a feature where when someone is calling you it'll say it in your ear and it won't shout it out.

It has bluetooth but it is not yet incorporated in the phone software so it is like it hasn't for now. But in a future update they might include it. This is how i understand it.
