For example, we've developed services to help people who are blind, hard-of-hearing, or have impaired vocal cords. And we've priced them with no intent to profit. Some regular services--such as Speakerphones or automatic dialers --may„ help people who are paralyzed or bedfast. In addition, we've designed special equipment for individual needs. But there are a lot of problems we don't even know about. If you have any trouble using your phone, we'd like to hear from you. Or if you have a handicapped friend, who cannot contact us himself, we would appreciate it if you would call us for him. Give us a call or drop us a line, and we'll be glad to come out arid discuss your particular problem, and do our best to solve it for you. The solution may be right on the shelf in our warehouse. If not, we'll be glad to suggest an original combination of services. There's no obligation, of course.
