I am wondering about other pay as you go plans, preferably using the Rogers Network. Also, is there a cell phone with volume boost for the hearing disabled? Thanks

The recipient is pretty computer illiterate, so I think that a Blackberry or an HTC Touch will be too complicated. I am thinking about getting an amplifier like the Plantronics Mobile Headset Amplifier: http://www.amazon.com/Plantronics-Mobile-Headset-Amplifier-2-5mm/dp/B0001KBG5M Does anyone know a store in Toronto that sells amplifiers for cell phones? Terminator2000, is there a link to the cellphones designed and rated for hearing aid's?
