If you are still looking, AT&T has a special 800 number for all sorts of 'special' hardware for folks with special needs. Also, Walker, a long time maker of amplified handsets, was bought up by Pacific Plantronics quite awile ago, and, even if a Walker regular shaped handset could not work with the 'el-cheapo' system, I bet a Plantronics operator type headset WILL. The have a FAT listing of what to order to work with almost ANY handset jack equipped phone, and you could get a headset that is amplified. BTW, I think there IS an FCC rule about handset ear pieces HAVING to be hearing aid compatible. Some sort of hearing aid like device would then function with any compliant handset.
