When it comes to using mobile phones, not all owners may have good hearing. Particularly for the elders, the need to turn to modifiers or hearing aids persists and apparently Sprint had this in mind when they came up with the Cap Tel.

The CapTel 800i is the latest offering in Ultratec’s CapTel line, joining the CapTel Model 200, a captioned telephone designed for use with traditional analog phone lines.

The CapTel 800i works on any telephone line, bringing with it the advantages of a telephone with text capabilities via the Internet and the ability to read the captions during telephone conversations.

The CapTel 800i will be available for purchase in the near future.

Those interested can visit www.sprintrelay.com/800i to be placed on a list and be first in line to order the new phone when it becomes available.
