As is so often the case in technology, they don't seem to arrive at the store when advertised but a bit later. Still, it's reasonable to expect options. We did make inroads for accessibility this past year with the telecommunications industry. Keeping the heat on will help put us over the top. So, ask in the stores, and keep those Sec. 255 complaints coming on all aspects of telecommunications accessibility--products, manuals, service, all of that.
