<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:12.0pt;color:#17365D'>Given the
issues over TTS access to books I thought it interesting that this seems to be
a feature for all.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:12.0pt;color:#17365D'>Related to the
usefulness of TTS there was an article on new phones and one of the features appreciated
by someone without a disability was the talking call display and talking
address book. My phone only has the talking call display so am now looking at “upgrading.”
I like it for the same reason – I can decide before getting up whether to
answer the phone or not. Of course since I can’t see who’s calling
if I do get up, the talking call display works on all levels.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
