Touchtown Equipment Options

Residents without a computer nor smart phone may find an inexpensive device for connecting to our campus Touchtown Community. Amazon has two options either at a cost of about $40 or a cost of around $100 that are easy to operate. The Amazon Fire TV stick can be attached to your TV and provide some of the Touchtown features; that is the least cost method. The Amazon Fire tablet (previously called a Kindle) can be found in a small screen size for as low as $50 but a larger screen will be nearer to $100 without commercial advertising. All Amazon devices have access to Alexa which is useful on Touchtown when asking what is going on today and may be more useful in the future as more features are added. Our campus Touchtown Ambassadors can help you get set up. Currently the Ambassadors are meeting on Thursdays in the Bistro at 2:30PM to offer their services helping residents get connected.
