Hi All,


Jeff, the only Android phone I know of with a physical number pad is the 
LG Wine Smart. It was released a couple of years ago, so it's not the 
latest and the greatest. I think it's running Marshmallow, which is 
relatively current. A couple of people from the Android list have it and 
seem happy with it. Someone else told me about the Samsung Galaxy Folder 
2, which is very new, but it seems to be available in Asia only.


Harry, A few Android list members have the Blackberry Priv, and they're 
very happy with it. You'll probably want to sign up to one of the 
Android lists once you get your new device.


Ciao

>>> 5. Also, Ana, is your book going to be able to help me use talkback on this phone?
>>> So, I will be curious to hear what folks have to say, about this phone.
