We'll see if you are right about repair difficulty from other comments. regardless, depending on the abilities of the phones and the wants and needs of the user, such a risk may be worth it if you

Well a good oderbox case would help to prevent that and keeping your phone pertected also helps. yes from what I know the battery is not accessible and I think it is not able to be accesed by the

But how much do they cost and how much moreability do you get with them? Are they full smart phones, with the ability to run all the aqpps a standard smart phone runs? In short, I doubt my feature

And why do you guys insist on evading my question? Don't sit there and tell me that nothing can ever go wrong with an IPhone. Something as simple as a loose battery connection could cause

Gerald, if I dare say so, I think that a trip to a phone store near you in the Big Apple will knock off several of your assumptions relating to smartphones with touchscreens. I'm certain that playing

Gerald, There's no way you don't keep up with mainstream tech, right?Because you should at least know that Apple still has the physical volume/power buttons. Like I said in a much earlier post, If

They do have physical volume buttons and power button. Whoever said they had no physical buttons meant the lack of a home button. No I’m not saying that IOS is so great that nothing can go wrong

Yes, new I phones do have buttons, they no longer have the home button. There are still the volume buttons and the power button. Give it a rest Gerald. You’ll rest easier. There are reasons

Which is precisely why I'd never buy one. I think we owe it to ourselves to use main stream products when possible and avail ourselves of their accessibility features, if for no other reason than that

So you are saying that IOS is such a wonderful OS that it is impossible for anything to go wrong and cause complete loss of speech that simple fixes like the ones you suggest won't resolve?

And the Smart Vision 2  is also expensive and made by an obscure company that provides little information about getting it repaired when it breaks, which it invariably will at some point.  Ditto for

Hi Gerald. On both Android, and IOS, there's a way to assign an accessibility short-cut to turn on the desired screen reader. You could also do what's called a hard reset, (not sure if that's on

And if voice over is on before you turn the phone off, it will come on when you turn the phone back on again.

Yes, but once you learn the device you will learn that loss of speech is usually caused by: Speech being muted. Solved by a 3 finger double tap. Voice over being turned off. Solved by either asking

Hi David, I heard that Comcast is now offering skinny bundles of channels so you can customise what you get on TV so that it is more to your liking and you don't have a bunch of channels you may not

Hi all, There's no need for just a flip phone if you are looking for buttons. There are two phones that I know of that will fill the bill. One is the Smart Vision2 and the other is Blind shell or

Okay, let's suppose you turn on your IPhone, and there is no speech? Then what? How do you restore Voice Over without sighted help if you have no idea what's causing the problem in the
