SilentTouchWatch.jpgThe vision- and hearing-impaired gain a new level of freedom with the release of the Silent Touch Watch, which works with the Silent Call line of alerting products. The watch can notify the wearer about a ringing doorbell or telephone, or even an activated smoke detector, fire alarm, or burglar alarm. It has a 300-foot range and uses both vibrational and visual alerts.

The Silent Touch works with Sidekick II Signature devices, which include a range of monitors and alarms. It offers a wake-up alarm, and can even be used with a mattress vibrator which shakes the mattress at the correct time.

Order the watch and you'll also get a travel case and a docking station that connects it to a mattress vibrator. The mattress vibrator, by the way, sends a different vibration for each alarm received.

The Silent Touch watch will be available on June 1 from silentcall.com. I couldn't find the watch on the Web site at this time, but here's a link to a Silent Call PDF catalog that lists it. According to the catalog, the watch sells for $150 and the charger for $117.65. A kit that includes the watch, charger, and bed vibrator costs $289.
