Hi,
No, I can't find the Haven anywhere in the UK. If it were here, it would be
a good phone for simplicity.
All the best

Is the "Haven" phone available in the U.K.? This is a phone that
talks out of the box and has distinguishable keys.
also, several of the LG hones talk out of the box though their speech
access is not as complete as a phone running talks.
