overthepond, so you use the direct connect to hear and you put the phone close to your mouth so the other side can hear you, so the microphone can work, very interesting, I may try it.
Drphil, really? 50% only are able to use the phone, hmmm, would the fact that if the person was using the phones before give him/her great chance to use it after CI? if you do hear without looking at lips after you CI then you may be able to use the phone after CI, you need to train your brain to do it and try to take away the fear factor from using the phone as I think this is the major problem that interfere with using phone with CI
