Hi Gerry,
There are 2 possible options:
the Easy5 has no speech and just 5 large buttons, each with a pre-programmed
number of the user's choice. The phone Costs around £106. But without
speech, obviously no sending or receiving of text messages.
the other is the Owaasys (not sure of spelling) sold by RNIB at £300. This
has been specifically designed and has wider spaced keys and speech. I
think it uses the makers speech system and voice, which although may not be
the clearest at first, is OK when you get used to it.
Give the resource centre a call?
Good luck,
Ray
