    Cell Phones

    I use V7 flasher (made by Audiovo) and a Hatis dual t-coil. The Hatis saleperson (4 years ago) encouraged me to use CDMA network. So i use Virgin Mobile network. Worked better than using Tracfone-GSM-Motorola. Btw, do NOT use Tracfone - their service is awful. Sheng-Chieh

    Looking for best hearing aide compatable telephone headset

    If the phone has a 2.5 mm plug as most cellphone has you can get a bi-annal hatis. HATIS® Corporation This is 5+ years ago. Now there are several t-coil models out there - probably cheaper. Also, there is a (are) "converter" from 3.5mm to 2.5 mm - CapTel folks would know. Sheng-Chieh
