there are several different ways in which you can solve this
problem. Plantronics makes a headset designed specifically for the
situation you described. I believe it can be purchased through MAXI-AIDS
catalog or directly from the manufacturer. this headset isn't cheap, about
$200, but it works very nicely. I use one at my office to connect to the
phone and an external voice synthesizer. One ear hears the voice synth and
the other has the telephone and a headset mic to use for that function.
However, if cost is an issue, you can go buy single ear headsets for about
$59 to work the telephone end of your problem. Then in the other eare, put
a small earphone piece to attach to the voice synth. This may be a little
more uncofortable for the user, but is less than $70 to implement. Good
luck.Jeff Pledger
