[gui-talk] accessible audio pagers

[Ed Barnes]

Good evening list, does anyone know the status of the pagers sold at www.talkingpager.com
Is the company in question still in business?
It looks like they are but I heard rumours to the contrary, also the fact that the two audio links which let you hear the pager speak are returning a page can not be displayed error message.
And, if the company is in business does anyone know the type of pagers these are, I.E. 931 mhz, etc.
I have a cell phone personally and don't really want any other convenience device, however; work is wondering if it would be possible to get me a pager that is accessible, I guess if they're paying me I'll put some effort into finding a solution.
Btw, I'm not exclusively focusing on the pager model referenced above, I am open to others, I red somewhere that motorola also has a pager model which talks, however; I have not yet been able to find any concrete detail on this one.
Any help/suggestions you could provide would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance - Ed.
