Comments on: Public Videophone Available in Central Pennsylvania http://inclusive.com/2007/04/public-videophone-available-in-central-pennsylvania/ More accessibility, for more access Wed, 16 May 2012 10:09:08 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.2 By: Garry "Videophone Boffin" http://inclusive.com/2007/04/public-videophone-available-in-central-pennsylvania/#comment-20092 Garry "Videophone Boffin" Tue, 10 Jun 2008 00:43:03 +0000 http://inclusive.com/?p=27#comment-20092 I wonder if a videophone that my daughter and I use in our homes would be of use to Sign language users? My daughter is waiting for the arrival of her first child (my first grandchild) and I intend to watch her/him grow up, no matter where I am in the world. Our phones are portable... the phone # is in the phone, and it requires a highspeed Internet connection. Contact is over a special voIP connection that is phone to phone (as opposed to computer to computer). The phone costs $99 and the monthly service is about $35 which includes full phone services and unlimited long distance in the US and Canada. Get this... there are NO long distance charges when I call NA, no matter where in the world I plug in my portable video phone. I'm not sure, of course, but this would seem to be a great technology for Sign language users. p.s. A "boffin" is an expert who has fun while helping people.
