Good to see companies aren't all money-faced, as AT&T has shown that it still possesses some remnant of humanity by offering a text plan that caters to subscribers who are deaf or suffer from a hearing/speech disability.
Today, AT&T Inc. (NYSE:T) announced a new Text Accessibility Plan (TAP) for iPhone, designed to give iPhone customers with disabilities the choice of unlimited text messaging, Web browsing and easy access to e-mail for $40 a month.
Both new and current eligible iPhone users with disabilities will be able to sign up for this plan. I wonder how much goodwill can be generated from this exercise, and when will AT&T's rivals follow suit?
