If you’re think about get iPod Classic or Nano instead iPod Touch or iPhone. But you’re not sure about closed caption (CC) support. I’m show the proof that both lately iPod model that does support CC and does appear on the display. Text size is somewhere small but fair to read. Let saying it’s not too bad for anyone with good visual. It’s not only for deaf but for hearing, which is ideal, to watch in the noise level area.
Take note, the movie with closed caption is available from iTunes with Power Search. So far, I checked there is 94 movies with CC on list. I brought Italian Job (1969) that support CC that can be view on iTunes or iPod the lately model.
1. Monthly is narrow expensive for me. I’m happy with Sprint Relay plan with my (ick) Centro) which is only $30 per month. Acknowledge that there is TAP plan for deaf but it’s still bit expensive than the normally which is $50 on 3G and $40 on original (EDGE).
2. There is no copy and paste feature. Imagine that its advance operator system for mobile and yet, it has no copy/paste!
3. Typing would slow me down. Of course, it would take time me to learn. Unfortunately, I couldn’t typing with one hand.
4. I fear that iPhone is like a glasses. Accessories are annoying. I prefer mobile phone in naked and be proud.
5. There is no tethering allow, at&t demand us to pay extra. Whatever I’m on road, I need an Internet on computer unlike seen on mobile phone. Yeah, I know there is Netshare but it keep removed from iTunes store.
6. 3G coverage isn’t great enough compare to EVDO. its better to await until it grow more. The more I will be satisfactory.
7. There is no video recorder mode. Have to buy an application to running iPhone as camcorder.
8. Lack battery, I may eat up battery when use pushy IMAP e-mail system. I’m medium user on surf web, e-mail and text-message.
