Hello Peter and all,

Perhaps this may be of interest. I have listened to the podcast, and can only 
recall one restriction, that web-surfing with speech is not accessible.

It does not speak straight from the box, but the podcast gives you the precise 
4 or so key entries to get it speaking. I have no direct experience of speaking 
phones, but the speech seemed fairly easily understood to my ear.

Paul Benson.

Newswire:
 
Each week, 15 minutes before each Tek Talk begins, Chase Crispin will
share his Technology Updates. Join him as he tells what he has
discovered.
 
It's Accessible, really accessible. The Samsung Haven cell phone has
been flying off the shelves since July. Everyone is buying
it--everyone is talking about it. The reason for all the raving about
the Haven is simple. It is the most accessible cell phone in its price
range. Curtis and Karen Delzer have studied this phone and know what
it can and cannot do. For the past month, they have been busy
acquainting users with its accessible functions through what they call
The Haven Tour. Step by step, menu by menu, the Haven Tour makes using
this phone easy. What can you do with this phone? It will allow you
to:
Enter and then access contacts,
Alert you about, then read and reply to text messages,
Enter and access ICE contacts,
Speak the caller ID message,
Download and use ring tones,
Enter well-being information and much more.
 
If you have questions about the Haven you own, want to know more about
its accessible features, or want to know why your friends are doing
all the raving, Curt and Karen will answer your questions. A
demonstration of the Haven is part of their presentation.
