RealSAM Pocket for Veterans

If you ever served in the US military and interested in the RealSAM Pocket, this page is for you

“I am crazy about RealSAM Pocket and amazed how easy it is to use from the get go. I had Lively and Jitterbug and they were driving me crazy. They were promoted for visually challenged people but I couldn’t use menus and needed help from sighted people. Even an iPhone was a pain to use even though I loved Siri. RealSAM Pocket is a blessing.”

– James F., Vietnam Era Veteran, Las Vegas NV

As a person who is blind, technology is the true equalizer.  Access to information is vital for a person with a visual impairment to have fair and equal access to the world around them. But today’s [mainstream] smartphone technology has left behind a huge segment of this population. The RealSAM Pocket is truly a simple talking solution for those suffering with vision loss. Whether you are totally blind or dealing with low vision, the RealSAM Pocket will allow you to have access to the applications needed to remain or regain your highest levels of independence.
