New SorensonVRS VP is now in beta testing.

Just heard about this new VP. Not exactly VP 300. The VP is a much smaller device. So I guess that this VP could be released in a month or so after the successful beta testing.

Have you heard anything like that?

No, I never heard about it. I hope not so new VP includes nTouch system because it is incompatible with P3 and Z4.

You are right.. But I am sure that FCC will scold SorensonVRS and force to get it working with all kinds of vp.

Agree with you. I was unhappy that my cousin s nTouch PC wasn't working to connect with my P3 and Z4. We will send complain report to FCC to be scolded to Sorenson.

Just hold your breaths! I am going to assume they will release the ntouch with a upgraded software version that will correct the "incompatibilties" with other vrs's. Sorenson is not dumb. since its "BETA" they can do whatever they want for a control when testing. hence the word beta.... They know all about it, and they just need a way to test carefully before releasing to everyone and have all sorts of negativity towards it until they feel confident its ready. I dont work for any VRS, so take this advice with a grain of salt....

No, it would be software for PC that allow to leave the message for P2P

Alright, Radioman. I made laughed what you say "Sorenson is not dumb"

But Sorenson should add video answering messaging feature for BOTH OF P2P AND VRS. NOT VRS ONLY on PC.

I likened it to the United States v. AT&T. I also asked the FCC to prevent Sorenson from distributing the VPs and to allow the default VRS provider to be changed when you click the VRS icon on front screen if they allowed VPs to be in the mainstream.

If there's new vp 300 or any products from Sorenson, I promised myself I refuse to get them, because Sorenson is hearing owned company, and they contribute and support a very little money to deaf organizations. Please support deaf owned relay services like Convo, ASLWave, and few others so they can serve deaf communities much better than hearing owned vrs companies.

To Deaf people; please wake up, and WAKE UP!

Authenic, all vrs companies are owned by hearing companies, did you watch the ideaf news with the guy talking to FCC and NAD? There are no deaf owned companies.

I'm looking forward to the new vp coming out hoping it'll include everything we asked for a long time including p2p and multiple vrs to contact with because I have friends with non Sorenson products and yet it's being blocked

I'm more into Mac than pc now and they're not doing nothing about the Mac and iOS devices! Wake up Sorenson! Have you forgot about us Mac users?

Ryan asked if there are any certified VRS providers that are deaf owned, and the answer was none. It is because of oppression in the FCC.

But there are white label VRS providers. Win.tv, ConvoRelay, AslWave to name a few.

If you wanted Mac compatibility and deaf owned VRS- go to Convo's website and you'll be hooked up in no time.

That's an individualistic thinking. The Jewish community was like that pre-holocaust. Now after the holocaust they're much more collective than ever (and probably much more than any group/communities out there on Earth). Their economical power is super these days.

And you complained about it in your vlog once by saying why are deaf people hypocrites while not putting in any effort of finding jobs and collecting Social Security. It can be found at this link which is in your signature: http://skullchickworld.blogspot.com/...hypocrisy.html

Now, with opportunities for the deaf community to make actual serious money, we should be supporting them from a collective point of view. This is because THESE same deaf people usually will hire more deaf people resulting in bigger and stronger community that is less reliant on Social Security.

Bottom line: If you want these same deaf people off Social Security, you got to do your part as well. Support them.

It matters.

I found blog for new nTouch mobile on iOS from Deaftechnews. Some people reported that ntouch Mobile is still in beta testing but this app for iOS devices is available now.




Sorenson Communications released ntouch Mobile for iOS devices (pictures)! | DeafTechNews LLC

I still loathe it. I refuse to install it on my iPhone and iPad 2.
