I totally agree Jeanie, Glen I’m not sure where you are getting your information from my good sir but, your wrong. I fiancé used a haven. The menus do talk, you can text, but when you dive into say the contacts menu, try to find a contact and try to look up the number that doesn’t read. The stopwatch doesn’t read. Long texts that are sent in maybe 2 or 3 messages don’t read. So, therefore its’ not accessible. truly accessible would mean everything speaks not just parts here and parts there. just an FYI. Hoping I don’t come across as mean but, I know my tech and that phone sucks nuts compared to what you can get out of an iOS or android device today. Heck even a android phone running gingerbread 3.2 works a lot better than a haven. any blind person with any common sense never purchase a haven please, for the love of God don’, you will regret your decision I promise you that.
