Hi AllWent out today and had a good look at what is available that will take Talks and there is simply nothing better than the N73, most being much worse. Couldn't find a N82 anywhere so looked at the successor the N96 and it had to be designed as a joke. Even my wife had problems typing on that tiny keypad.
So I've decided to give up the search and switch my contract to pay as you go and wait until reason returns to the designers and more sensible phones come back onto the market.
Thanks everyone for your help and comments in this matter. Roger----- Original Message ----- From: "Jackie Cairns" <jackie.cairns@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Hi Roger Personally, I feel the N82 has a nice keypad layout where the keys are slightly spaced out to make navigation easier. Of course it's all down to preference, and I would be pushed to find a keypad as lovely as the N91 if I had to choose a favourite. (smile).

George. Hi All My contract for my N73 expires today so I'm looking at options for an upgrade. I like my phone except for one factor. The keys are too small for confident, quick keystrokes. I would love one of the phones in the older style which had prominent keys such as my old Nokia 3310. Does a phone with these keyboards exist that will take TALKS?
