Demo of Ten-Digit TN by GoAmerica and AT&T
26 06 2008All.
Right after the FCC released Rule & Order of 10-Digit TN and Emergency Access along with Further Notice issues, GoAmerica and AT&T were quick to release a press news on their intend to demonstrate the 10-Digit TN.
GoAmerica and AT&T, will demonstrate 10-Digit which will be fully Interoperable between VRS providers. Click and be excited!
Be aware that by now, there are two methods out there now; CSDVRS’s ONS and this one. Rule & Order by the FCC has essentially rejected CSDVRS’s ONS methodology. The method proposed by Joint Venture will be the "building blocks" for the Ten-Digit TN and Emergency Access methodology. So the demonstration will give y’all taste of what the future TN system will look like.
Unfortunately, I won’t be able to go to the NAD Conference. Those of you who will go, do let us know what you think of it.
eyes open & thumbs up,

Why GoAmerica not mention that AT&T is with signed with them? This announcement is somewhat fuzzy lie. GoAmerica pretend to bigger and more support.
IPRelay company that now merged with GoAmerica give real telephone number for two years now. This is not really new offer for TRS.
Larry,
NexTalk has similar service, too. I don’t know if they are “real telephone number” and I don’t think they are. The test to see if they are real number is if they show up on Caller ID and if emergency station is able to recognize the phone number as who they are and where they are. If answer to all these is “yes”, then they are real numbers. If answer is “no”, then they are not real TN. Do u know? I would like to know, too.
