In response to consumers with disabilities unsure about which wireless devices and services best fit their needs and abilities, the Wireless RERC developed “Your Guide to Choosing a Cell Phone” in 2004.

Today, all of the major wireless manufacturers and service providers, as well as some third party resources, maintain websites offering accessibility information.  These websites are powerful tools for gathering and comparing information about available products and services for customers with disabilities.

At the same time, navigating these sites, and the sheer amount of available information, can be intimidating.  Following a consumer study, the Wireless RERC compiled the following list of links to accessibility resources…

 General Accessibility Guides on Wireless Technology

CTIA's Access Wireless webpage

Mobile Manufacturers Forum's webpage

 Wireless Carrier’s Accessibility Resources

AT&T's accessibility webpage

The Wireless RERC welcomes additional feedback from both consumers and the wireless industry, including recommendations for additional sites of interest to customers with disabilities.
