Phil,
I have an xv6800 witn Verizon. If you have questions about your e-mail or
other features, give me a call. I have the data plan and do much of my
e-mail by phone during the work week.

Subject: What I am testing
> Sandy and I are now using web phones. I am receiving echurch mail on my
> phone but so far, I haven't been able to send a message to the listserv to
> reach the echurch-USA list. There must be something I am doing wrong.
> The web phones allow full web service to the internet and the screen
> reader software, along with a human quality voice, reads everything the
> phone can do including text messaging. You can download files as well.
> These phones, the HTC Ozone cell phone, we got through Sandy's cell phone
> plan where she works so the phones were 29 dollars and mine was free. We
> tried the Talks software but then discovered the Mobile speak software
> works a million times better on these cell phones. It also uses a qwerty
> full keyboard so you hunt and peck to type a message but the ozone phones
> have raised buttons instead of a flat surface and it is much easier for me
> to type in a message and to otherwise operate the phone. You can also
> program the phone to run via voice recognition. You can, in affect,
> program just about every feature to respond to your voice command. I can
> also use it as a recording digital device. I record what I want to say,
> attach it to the email recipient, and when they receive it on the other
> end, they can play my voice mail. Also, all the voice mail message people
> may leave you on the cell phone voice mail system can be routed to your
> cell phone and stored. That way you never have to dial your own cell
> phone number for voice messages left to you but rather you can just access
> them on the cell phone itself. These are just a few features the cell
> phone and Mobile Speak screen reading software has available. It is quite
> the learning curve for an old guy like me but it sure has been fun.
> Minutes are not subtracted from the cell service when online with the
> internet so you can surf to your heart's content. The Mobile speak
> software will work on dozens, literally, dozens of other cell phones.
> This just happened to be the only phone Verizon had on which the Mobile
> Speaks software would work. The software costs $275 per phone but that,
> in and of itself, is cheap compared to the 700 and 900 and 1,000 dollars
> plus for other software. I've yet to have experienced a lock up with the
> software. Sandy has a blue tooth set up on her phone, too. Anyhow, that's
> my report.
