There was over fifty vendors at the 2009 Hearing Loss Association of America Convention at the Gaylord Opryland Resort & Convention Center in Nashville, TN! I was running around snapping pictures of the different vendors and learning about the different services and products for the deaf and Hard of Hearing.
The first one is Sprint Relay who just so happened to have sponsored this year Internet Cafe! The convention goers were able to stop by and check their email and update their status on Facebook or whatever. Since Elvis was in the building hanging out by the Sprint Relay booth, we were able to get a free picture printed a mousepad with Elvis.
Elvis and I.These are some of the services that Sprint Relay provides:
Sprint Video Relay - A conversation is only as good as the technology it’s using. Which is why you won’t find better answering speed, video quality and ease-of-use than with Sprint Video Relay.
Sprint IP using AIM - Express yourself with Sprint Relay using AIM®. Place or receive calls on any wireless device or computer using AOL Instant Messenger (AIM) with internet access.
