accessible phones and networks

Thu Apr 24 15:52:20 CDT 2008

Hi, Cy.
	To the best of my knowledge, there is no such thing as the Blackjack
Tilt. I've never heard of such a phone, though it may very well be a name
given to a certain phone by AT&T. There's the Blackjack 2, which is not
included in the offer despite its being a Smartphone, and there's the AT&T
Tilt, which  is a Pocket PC phone and therefore not included in the offer,
so whichever you mean by the question, I think the answer must be no.
	Aman

Hi, concerning the Samsung Blackjack, does this also include the Blackjack
Tilt?
That phone really does have a nice, feelable keyboard.

Hi, Marcy and all.
	I believe, though am not sure, that AT&T has six phones available
with the $89 Mobile Speak software. Those are the Motorola Q9 Global, the
Pantech Duo (not Trio, the Trios aren't either Symbian phones or WM
smartphones and made by Palm, not Pantech), the Nokia N75, the Samsung
Blackjack (not the Blackjack 2), the Cingular 3125, and the Nokia E62.
	Note that all this is confirmed, as well as many questions answered,
by the FAQ Code Factory has put up http://www.codefactory.es/att/ 
	I know that the last three phones I listed, the Blackjack, E62, and
3125 are older phones. They may no longer be available in stores and may, if
they are available at all, be available only from the AT&T disabilities
centre. Therefore, it's possible your contact at that centre, assuming you
wanted to buy from a store, only mentioned the first three.
	HTH.
	Aman

Okay, so now I'm confused.  Is the $49. over and above the $89. charge for
the mobilespeak?  I was under the impression that the $89. cost was for the
mobilespeak and its installation.  Marcy
