Hey guys! I just wanted to let everybody know how awesome PhoneCaption is! First, please know that is a service for the hard of hearing -- not the Deaf. Operators provide transcriptions of what is being said during conversations between the hard of hearing and hearing. So the hard of hearing party hears the hearing party AND receives text. The great thing is that it's a FREE SERVICE! Go to PhoneCaption and click "Sign Up Now." It's so easy. After you sign up, you get your own 800-number. You can make AND receive calls. Texts can appear on your MAC or PC, PDA device, blackberry, or Cisco IP Phone! Hurry, sign up now!
 
I did go look, this is what it said..

FreeRelay services are free and are designed to provide services to the deaf and hard of hearing community. You are free to refer customers to us or recommend your relations or friends to use our service 24 hrs a day.

I did not see how it was so different than any other relay service?
 
my HA guy want me to get this , but I do not like the idea of an operator listening to my phone calls! And I do not think my friends and family would like it ! If we did not need an operators I would think of trying it when it come out my way!
 
The thing is, no matter what relay service you use, there will always be an operator in between you and whoever you are talking to. Whether it's the above-mentioned service or not.
