I would have been perfect for this commercial

People looked at me like I was insane for getting a cell phone. Of course I cannot really use it for the phone, but is great for texting. It open a new way of communication for me. New  more businesses are making texting more of an option then calling, or even emailing. I am still confounded when place that are working to help People With Disabilities have the only option of calling. How does that let me be independent, or a self advocate if I communicate with them? Has it done the same for others with disabilities?
