[blindlaw] A few questions by someone who's new into all of this

[Stephanie Ortoleva]

I have the Verizon telephone and find it quite satisfactory.  You can read

http://www.afb.org/accessworld
a technology newsletter of the American foundation for the Blind.
The articles describe the features of the Verizon telephones.
I never used the software you used overseas, so have no comparison.
