I agree with Reba. This reads just like a regular marketing letter intending to encourage growth to their business by reminding you about CI. There isn't anything in it discussing about giving it away for free.

Have a fun trip! You'll have fun meeting everyone. :)

Sim-Com works well. Like CJB, I get the advantages of lip-reading the spoken word when I'm not familiar with a sign. Most of the interpreters that I've met do sim-com.

Okee doke... This is what the guy said in the video (as far as I understood it). (disclaimer: not my words or thoughts, just interpreting what the guy said in the video)

A year or two is about right. Sometimes, I need to replace it more often, depending on how much they squeal.

Deafland? lol My brother and I were talking about the accent and what our response should be the next time we're asked where we're from. He said "Antartica". :) Works for me! And yes, I suppose I am a talking deafie. Mainstreamed with sign language.

Shastar, I found this other thread of a similar issue: http://www.alldeaf.com/computers-electronics-gaming/72848-vizio-wont-show-dvd-cc-why-2.html In the thread I linked, it discussed a bit on how some TV's can't read the CC data when connected via component. Perhaps, it would help if you...

I quoted the above line as it seems like CC is being confused with subtitles, based on the issue description. Closed captioning (CC) is not the same as subtitles. So, the option to "turn on" closed captioning would not be in the DVD setup menu. Rather, closed captioning is handled by the TV. Is...

I don't have the nauseating or off-balance feeling that you experience when I use only one hearing aid. I'm actually down to one hearing aid right now until I get my new molds. Squeals too much to have the other one in and it doesn't really offer added value. But, the only real change, for...

Depending on who you spoke with at your local Target store, I would talk with the store HR manager first and offer to do a trial run. If you have already discussed the issue with both the store manager and the store HR manager, and they have the same issues still, I would recommend contacting...

I also have the Logitech webcam (I have 2: 1 for work, 1 for home) and it has been quite excellent in my usage. The cheaper ones wouldn't be so bad if there was a way to manually manage the exposure rate.

Sprint Relay PDF says offer expired on 10/31/09?

Forum Rules states: So, perhaps it could fall under that.

Thanks PFH, I see now, it's down at the very bottom of the page: I guess I never scrolled all the way down to the bottom of the page when I was looking for that. Thank you for the clarification :ty: I wonder which would hold precedence though, the forum rules where the users agree to...

Overall, I think it may be a good idea to create a new section dedicated to Stem Cells so that it could be filtered out of the hearing aids/CI forum section easier. I like to read the HA/CI and other future technology, such as stem cells, but I could do without the flame wars. It detracts from...
