Well, I bought this "Semi" house 8.5 years ago and I spent a fortune upgrading it last year.... to have many features my "dream house" would have, but it is still lacking.. Currently 1800 square feet, all to myself in a nice area, acorss the street from liquor store, a mini plaza with a...

I was evaluated at Sunnybrook Hospital in toronto... on Bayview street just off the 401. My audiologies said they are the best in Ontario (however it is also the closest place) they get funding for like 200 CI's a year I believe. The wait was rumoured to be 6-8 months. After my assessment...

Hmm, I went to a public school where I would have been the only HOH in my school. Small district. Town population only 5,000. I was fortunate that my mother had spent hours with me at speech therapists, and she worked with me a lot so I do not have deaf accent, I have normal speech...

Phones.... grrr. I don't even use the relay, but I have used it to talk to another deaf person long time ago.... It is so frustrating that many companies are switching to these automated systems...... and many are actually disabling the "0" option.. I end up just pushing buttoms...

there is a combo t-coil/mic setting that could let you hear, while still picking up the sounds...... does the buzzing get LOUD if you go near a TV and get quieter if you step away?

I was wondering the same myself when I read this thread earlier today... when I have my HA on t-coil, certain electronic devics cause a buzzing.... some houses are REALLY bad (old ones with crappy wiring) or if I drive while on phone, with headlights on, vs off.... or near a TV... I hear...

I'd be happy if they bought out my company!! LOL! It's one of those "glass is half empty or half full" situations, and really depends on what side of the table you are sitting on I guess

I didn't hear anything about that lawsuit, and I think it's unlikely..... it's nothing personal among the companies, just business. However this bid may very well backfire on Microsoft...... their (Microsoft's) market value dropped over $40 billion since this takeover bid. Meaning their own...
