Hello,
http://www.sprintcaptel.com works on BlackBerry Bold's web browser if you upgrade to BlackBerry OS 5.0.0.238 beta .... This OS is fairly buggy, so I recommend waiting until the final 5.0 release comes out, however, if you cannot wait.
Since you cannot reconfigure your font size in Sprint WebCapTel, you'll want to set the font size first via your desktop before you load Sprint WebCapTel in your BlackBerry Browser. Preconfigure your font size to about 42 from the desktop in your existing Sprint WebCapTel account, before using it on your BlackBerry Bold. Make sure you set the Bold to "3G Only" (if it lets you), since simultaneous voice and captions only work if you have 3G instead of EDGE or GPRS. It only works on 3G which is why only BlackBerry Bold works, or any other HSPA-equipped BlackBerry (If you're stuck with EDGE or GPRS or 1X, you can use the two-cellphone method -- one for the captions, one for the voice)
Also reported to work on many other mobile phones with a modern Safari/Webkit browser, such as iPhone 3G, 3GS, certain browsers on certain Android phones, etc.
