My New Cellphone - Living Blind

[Quinn5ysby]

This is funny!

[xphile0001]

Currently working on my PhD with ocular synthesizers, which would develop certain behaviours "inside" the muscular tissues, among many other applications. If only I had test subjects like you :/

Still, good video.

Hello I have the env3 and it is verizon you can have the text read it to you when you get a text jut press the space bar hope this makes sence.

[Moviestar20]

whats living blind mean?

[1990Stephanie2010]

Well... some people asume that I as a blind person can't clean house etc. In some ways we do live differently than the sighted people do. That's where I got the name "living blind"

[Moviestar20]

aw thats not nice at all. :[

do you have any disabilities or something? you can see cant you?

[1990Stephanie2010]

I can see a little bit but not enough to read print or look at a picture. I can see bright colors like the sun, but that's about it. If you consider being blind a disability then yes. If you're like me then no I do not have any disabilities. I don't consider being blind a disability.

[Moviestar20]

so sorry to hear that :(

I dont know much about the blind but I have a feeling the glasses you have make you see clearly so you could read comments & messeges on youtube.

[1990Stephanie2010]

Actually I use a "text to speech" program to do that. I also got the name living blind from my first video which has that particular name. Sorry just thought of it. I kept thinking that there was another reason. That video was so long ago though.

[pickledzinnias7]

oomgg i want the env3!

[1990Stephanie2010]

I just want a phone that reads back to me what I type. lol.

[VideoGuyNC]

So it does read messages you receive? Is it pretty easy to use? Can you use the mp3 feature and set ringtones? I am actually POSSIBLY getting a cell. I have been dead set against them, but I'm thinking about it. Also - are the keys pretty decent in terms of tactile quality? Thanks - nice video!

[1990Stephanie2010]

Yes you can use the keys. If you have trouble use the voice command (I use it for dialing) Minues r Not very accessible, won't read past the point of clicking on something. Like if u click on the sent box for texts. It won't read the sent texts so u better hope u can read them as they're recieved. u might wanna have someone who's sighted set up that program for u. The phone will speak the name of who ever's calling u if their in your contact list. Other wise it reads the phone number.

hi. Nice cellphone. They are good to you? do you get use then fine. Sometime modern cellphones is so hard to understand.

Bye

[1990Stephanie2010]

I really like my cellphone except for the "not reading back what I wrote" thing. Other wise it works fine

[rml695]

Congrats on the new phone. :D I'm also on Verizon, I have the Voyager. If rumors are true on January 27th with the Appl event, besides a tablet, we could be getting an iPhone on Verizon. I may get that, if it's true.

[1990Stephanie2010]

I've been hearing about the iphone thing for a while now... I think. I hope we can. I want one to. Even though I'm not sure if I can use the touch screen. That's the only thing that concerns me about it.

[rml695]

The touch screen is easier to use than you think. Flick left & right to navigate items, double tap to activate, tripple finger tripple tap to activate the screen curtain (i.e. turn the screen off) - it's very easy. :)

[jls1114]

i had that but now the envy 3 is out and i have that instead it is a little better , yeah that is true it does not read back what you typed not even the envy 3 does either

[1990Stephanie2010]

I know. Reading back what you typed would be better, proofreading wise.
