[community] Assistive listening device trial opportunity

[Foster, Julia]

Hi community,

A vendor asked if I would like to trial an assistive listening device. Now, I can't provide full feedback on this hearing-wise, but if anyone else wants to connect with him and trial this, let me know and I'll connect you.

Thanks,
Julia


"Julia, we have this device we could loan you for trial if you are interested?  It's called WEAR, Assistive Listening Device https://www.specialneedscomputers.ca/index.php?l=product_detail&p=4124.

It's from ActiVocal in Israel, the same company that makes the Around Phone (which is being upgraded and not currently available.  They are also looking for ideas to develop to develop new devices.  If you have any ideas or needs you see let me know and it will be passed along."
