I just saw a demo of an IBM product thatlet s the deaf talk to hearies
via a program called CommPhone. You use a modem with the software and
it will:
Send or receive calls from a phone and tell you by flashing the screen
or a lamp that the phone is ringing. A hearie's spoken words are coverted
to print on your screen (or they type on the phone dial, I think I
saw it both ways). Your typed message is coverted to spoken words for
the hearie. I am to recieve a loaned copy fof the program to see if
I like it. If yes, i will buy it. Nice IBM people. :-]
