Hi, everyone. With my LG Optimus V (Virgin Mobile), I want to be able to enter the information before the relay operator initiates a call since using a soft keyboard can take a lot of time to thumb type. Also, I want to be able to adjust the font size due to my visual impairment. It'd be nice...

I get a missed call e-mail, which is pretty much from the automated dialer. It's from 425-562-3215 and that seems to be the debt collection agency, so here's the recording: (recording) hold press 2 if i need to call back later press 3 of this is a wrong number press 4 it is really important i...

To lower the chance of misleading anyone with the subject about airfare, I've marked the beginning subject as "repetition." Source: Air Travel - Finding The Cheapest Ticket I don't want to offend the writer who wrote this, but I think that teacher should use this as an example on how you...

Can someone please tell me what is the meaning of this? Flint, MI on Flickr - Photo Sharing! I came across this photo while in the website called CompleteStreets.org and I went into the Flickr web page containing incomplete streets: Incomplete Streets - a set on Flickr I'm in Orlando...

I read the article about surviving sobriety test: How to Survive a Police Sobriety Test | eHow.com Okay, three things: I don't drink alcohol-related beverages (beer, wine, etc.), I don't drive, and I'm visually impaired. Because I can't control my eyes (well, I can blink my eyelid, but...

Do adult tricycle like the Schwinn Meridian Adult Tricycle fit in with bike lanes? I'm hoping that the back wheels were not spread too far apart, so this is why I came here to ask. I don't think tricycles would fit in with bike racks (for example, when it comes to stopping for small amount of...

Hi. I do have a question about whether VRS providers support SIP or not, but while I know this is a technical post that I'm about to write, I'd like to brief anyone about SIP. SIP is Session Initiated Protocol. It allows invitation (phones ringing, for example), acknowledgement (this is when...

When it comes to looking at nutrition for foods, like cereal (I don't eat breakfast every morning -- not even lunch, since I'm in a diet), under the Total Fats, is the word "Cholesterol" considered "good cholesterol" or "bad cholesterol?" I know that cholesterol has two parts to it: low density...

Hi. I'm trying to do a search, but I don't know the correct keyword when it comes to answering the front door, so here it goes: This night, I've been solicited about the books and magazine contest (or something like that--I don't know! :ugh:) and told me I can get 20,000 points, but I said no...

Get Your Walk Score - A Walkability Score For Any Address I'm very curious to know your walk score (just don't tell everyone your home address). Mine is 48 out of 100. I'm just a walk-away from Tallahassee Community College, but everything else is car-dependent!

Hi. I was with Vonage about late last year and the service is great for me until the price increase of my Vonage 500 Minute Basic plan, which originally costs $14.99/month and it went up to $17.99 a month starting this month. However, I disagree with the rate increase to $17.99/month, as I...

:) Oh, I should've posted in the Pictures/Videos section of the forum, so I didn't think the first time when I post my screenshot about the picture of Firefox using a Glasser extension.

Hi. I'm looking for a forum that is blind-related, just like AllDeaf. I know I can do a Google search for myself, but I just got tired looking through the Internet to see if there's any weather-related websites that are way less complex than Weather.com and AccuWeather.com. Browsing through a...

Hi everyone! I found some information when it comes to those who are sightless (blind -- those who can't see) and when it comes to major issues with accessing websites such as weather.com. Here's the PDF (Portable Document Format): http://www.xeroday.com/portfolio/UPA2004_paper_final.pdf When...

Source: Prototype affordable Braille display in development | RISC OS news and information from Drobe I found this to be very interesting, as I'd like to have a Braille Display, but can't afford it and it can be a hassle to be in talks with the Vocational Rehab. What screen reader I use under...

Hi. I've been using a screen reader, called Orca, which runs under Lunux, such as Ubuntu 8.10. One major frustration when browsing the forum is with nested tables and it gets very frustrating when trying to get to the content. While I can get to the main forum index or browse the thread by...

Hi. I am running Ubuntu 8.10 under VirtualBox virtual machine and I'm starting to get around with browsing the web site with Firefox, but one of my problems in here is when it comes to browsing the forum. For example, when I hit the "h" key to get to the first heading (which I assume to be the...

Hi, I have a question. How long do you wait if a call is in hold? When I was calling XM Radio service to cancel my XM Radio subscription, I wait until the relay operator asks me if I want to continue holding, which gave me the feeling that the relay operator does not want to wait any more...

Vonage will up my bill to $17.99 starting April. I don't use over 75 minutes (peak, which is rarely used up) and I use WebCapTel due to my hearing impairment. I do use about 20 to 30 minutes monthly. It's mostly to talk with my parents over the phone. I'm thinking about switching to other...

Uurgh! Comcast, aka Comcr@ptic (I hate Comcast), sent me mail after mail after mail to get me away from Vonage phone service and switch to Comcast phone service. I have Vonage Basic 500, as I don't talk a lot. I have an AT&T Pay As You Go Unlimited for phone service when I'm not at home. Thus, I...
