Hello,
I've seen someone who requires a telephone which can be operated hands free
with a Prog. She wants to use the phone with a wireless headset so that she
can conduct her phone calls in a little more privacy.
I'm told that the Jupiter phone is not yet available in this country with a
headset socket. It's available on the continent but isn't BABT approved for
use in the UK.
The phone that SRS provide can be used with some limitations by a Prog.
However, when a headset is plugged in sound can still be heard through the
phone's own hands free mode speaker.
Is anyone aware of a phone which can be operated by a Prog in hands free
mode, with sound heard through the phone's own speaker when the headset is
not plugged in and only through the headset speaker when when the headset is
plugged in? Also, if the headset is plugged in then perhaps the phone's own
microphone should not be allowed to work either.
Even if there's a device out there which works, is it BABT approved?
Even if physically possible, she'd rather not use a mobile. She's currently
trying her own cordless phone with a headset, but I'm not sure if she'll be
able to access it.
Marcus.
