My understanding Sorenson want as much VRS minutes as possible. The true reason they dont want hearing to have access to videophone, so that force hearing use VRS to call deaf.
This type of fight for full accessible is a long fight. That the reason I am asking FCC to reconsider and fix the ruling. Tying the ten digit number to one videophone is outdated. It need to be modified to multi device in a home. That way it will allow multi user in home, apartment, dorm etc... You name it, more control to us of where the phone number goes. Profile, registration required and continue to regulate it fully.
I continue to ask for 8 videophone to one 10 digit number for a reason. That will give us full access in a home where videophone is in kitchen, living room, bedroom, garage, backyard, office, basement, upstair if needed and anywhere that you often pass by. I dont want to run from upstairs to 1st floor to answer a videophone. Hearing people dont do that. They have a phone in every room in the house. I want the same equality.

additional to this - think of deaf that are physically disabled. They will not be able to move as fast as they can to a videophone.
Or
Senior citizen at age of 80, they will not be able to move fast to a videophone and what if they fell? They cant dial 911. That if they dont have pager on them. Yet the pager do not have 911 profile and its mobile. Its easier to assign 911 profile to a home that does not change often.
