All Disabilities

I recently undertook a Google search for online message boards specifically for people with disabilities who are survivors of sexual assault. I found nothing, so I began my own. Right now, it’s not a lot to look at, though I intend to add to it in the coming days and weeks. Please pass this along to anyone that may be interested, and please feel free to link to it.

How do I update an existing contact on my HP iPAQ Glisten with Windows Mobile 6.5? When I go to my Phone window and select the number I want to use to update my existing contact then hit Edit, none of my existing contacts come up, just stuff like "New contact", "Pay my bill", etc. (I am with AT&T and their customer service couldn't help me.)

This person is in Idaho, USA, and may be in danger in her living situation. She has limited mobility and doesn't know where to ask for help. I have advised her to phone Adult Protective Services, but from what I've read online that organization seems geared toward senior citizens.

I cannot seem to increase or decrease the speech rate on my phone.

I am using an HP Glisten with Windows Mobile 6.5 and MobileSpeak installed purchased from AT&T's disability center.

When I hit my Command Key + either the left or right arrow key, I hear "Rate " ("Rate 1" "Rate 2" etc. etc.), but I never hear the actual speech rate increase or decrease.

HELP!

How do I get my speech rate/speed to increase/decrease???

Thanks.

First, the obligatory stats: I've an HP iPAQ Glisten phone with Windows Mobile 6.5 and MobileSpeak 4.5.2.

Now, to my question...

How, exactly, do I mut the ringer on this phone so I can hear my caller ID being read by MobileSpeak? The MS manual simply doesn't make sense to me on this point (Spanish to English translation?).

Thanks.

I am presently using an HP iPAQ Glisten mobile/cell phone with Windows Mobile 6.5 and Mobile Speak.

When I bring up the composition window for a text message and have entered in all my contacts, I am then unable to navigate down to where I can enter the actual text for the message! When I hit the Down Arrow, it just keeps me in the "To" field (where all of my selected contacts have been entered)! I can't get out of the "To" field by using my arrow keys!

A similar problem appears to exist when I am in Internet Explorer: When I am in a multi-line text box, after I have entered text, I can find no way to get out of that text box to take other actions. If I press "Enter", it just takes me down a line, but keeps me in the text box and I can't get out of it do to any other actions, such as hit a "Submit" button in a form!

HELP!!!

Greetings.

I can't seem to find a shortcut MobileSpeak command (either via touch or via the keyboard) to activate soft keys.

Anyone know how to do this?

Thanks.

OK, guys, I recently purchased an HP Glisten with MobileSpeak on it. I ordered it via AT&T's disability services.

However, when my screen goes off (is that Standby Mode?), it sometimes beeps at me about every ten seconds or more! How do I stop this and why does it keep beeping at me???

Thanks.

Does anyone know of a calendar web site (along the lines of, but other than, yahoo) that plays nicely with Internet Explorer's "accessibility" features of text size, zoom and custom color schemes?
