talking cell phone for Verizon

For subscribers, there is the LG4500 which talks. You need to have the phone in "Driver Mode" and you can tell it to "Call someone" "Digit Dial" or "contact" which will ask you to "read, erase, or create a contact". It also will tell you the current time and date, as well as phone status (battery power, strength of service, and E911 support).
