Handheld closed Captions

My husband is deaf. We use the reflective captioning where ever it's available. I've just read a blurb on WDW web site about handheld closed captions devices for some of the "dark" rides. Has anyone here ever heard of or used these before? They are supposed to be locaqted at guest ervices but i can't find guest services on the maps on the web site. Can anyone out there help me?? This sounds like something that will make our trip even more magical for both of us, I don't have to sign everything and he can be more "invisable" (he hates the way people stare when i have to interpret a ride or attraction for him!).

Re: Handheld closed Captions

Hi. Guest Services is located near the enrance to each park. At MGM it's to the left right before the turnstyles to enter the park. They are clearly marked and if you can't find them, ask a CM. They will be able to direct you. I have no experience with these, but bet they are wonderful. Disney does everything well, so I am certain that this will make your trip more magicla for your DH. Please report back after your trip about these. The information and experience will surely help another person with the same questions.

I found this: http://allearsnet.com/pl/reflect.htm
Sounds like all you need do is ask a CM at the ride.
