SPEW Yuck!

$90?!! $150?!! For a remote control? Not going to get my money!

If I have a computer at home, and I need a computer to use my videophone, then it makes so much more sense to just get a webcam. Of course, then again, there are those who have too much money and not enough sense who'll buy these things.

No thanks. Cost-prohibitive.
 
This product is TOTALLY RIP OFF!!! I did some research, and found out real bad product! It is very limited feature... Only works as up, down, left, right, and Enter button THAT IS IT!!! can't type any characters!!!
 
That's not a rip-off, That's the way the Utahns does business.

Richard
 
Obviously you like to see people getting ripped off!
Very limited feature for 159 dollars? The remote control that comes with the VP got more feature in it and its FREE... Free or 149 dolalrs, go figure!

Err, Richard, you're basically saying that Utahians do business by ripping people off. Be nicer to those from the Salt Lick state (err, I mean, the Beehive state or the Mormon state).

Paying $150 for what looks like a keyboard just to use a VP is a rip off. You can buy portable IR keyboards for a lot cheaper than that, and I bet they'd still be able to connect to the videophone (without still being able to use the keypad, of course).

Might not be news to you, but the way Utahns think.. Most of them think you are an asshole!

I know that DeafWorks invents some of their own products, so it is going to be a little pricey until a major corporation buys the patent from DeafWorks and mass-produce the product. Then the price will go down.
 
utah's the state that lot of technology for the deaf got created, ex, VIDEOPHONE! without utahans, we wont have vp/dvc-1000

DHB, you are totally misunderstood one of its' features. It does type in
characters of about 100 VP# & person names listing and then store it
in the memory. Re-read its' features on line item #2.

I second that! Do you know what happened to all of us without the Mormon
State? No VP! Sorenson is Mormon. They invented it. No Nextalk! NXi
is Mormon. They invented it. No VP answering machine or
flasher! DEAFWORKS is Mormon. They invented it. No hotel! Marriot is
Mormon. They created it. And, what's more? No TV! Farnsworth is
Mormon! He invented it. I know that Mormon are always very hard workers
and honest people to make our lives easier. I still thank them everyday
even I am not a Mormon myself (ummm, maybe someday).

How did you do the reserach? The VP Buddy is just an extension of your videophone remote control.

I can have zillion entries in my VP Buddy while the videophone is limited to 40 entries. No more Post It notes all over my monitor and no more Rolex fulla of numbers.

Some senior people do not like having small silm remote control due to finger dexerity.
 
How do I know? I have sources! Did you already tested it? I don't think so, but my sources already verified. and it is way too pricey for what it has to offer, Speaking less than what the remote control that comes in have to offer.

So what. Leadership is an art.

If my leadership looks like a giant mud phallus in the eyes of deaf Utahns, then it will look like a giant phallus to them while it looks like a golden sword to everyone else.

Don't flatter yourself. It makes you look like the bigger fool.
 
What you just said proves that leadership is a form of art.

It's not about self flattery, its about walking on the plane of reality. Thats something even 'popular' deaf leaders have plenty of difficulty accomplishing.
