Hiya Steve, I also use predictive and add words to the dictionary when they
aren't recognised. However, I think the dictionary must be limited because
sometimes words I have added are not there, so maybe you can only add a
certain number. It is really good though nevertheless.

Hi Ian,
If you have Talks V2.51.4, then predictive texting is a dream. It reads the
words that are guessed perfectly, and it is easy to turn on and off
predictive text. If you have a word that you think won't be recognised by
predictive text, just press the hash key twice quickly to turn it off.
Twice quickly again will turn it on. If it is on, and you turn it off,
Talks will say upper case, or lower case. If it is off, and you turn it on,
Talks will say Dictionary Upper Case, or Dictionary Lower Case, indicating
that the dictionary is on by the word Dictionary, and indicating the case of
the next letter. You press star if the guessed word is not correct.
By the way, if you want to know how to use predictive, you simply press the
relevant key once when writing a text. Let me give you an example. To
write the word chocolate without predictive, you would have to write this:-
222446662226665552833
The first letter for example, C is written by pressing the 2 key three times. With dictionary or predictive on however, chocolate looks like this:-
246265283
This is a saving of effectively 12 keystrokes, bringing the total presses from 21 down to 9.
This works because you only have to press each number once regardless of
which letter you want, then the dictionary guesses your word. This makes
for much faster texting. So if your word isn't recognised? You press the
Talks or edit key twice, and Talks will say Edit. The first option is
Dictionary Options, simply select this and go down to insert word if you
want to add a word, or edit word, if you want to edit the word you are on,
enter it manually, this disables predictive automatically, then hit OK.
From now on, the dictionary will know that word, and it will guess it using
predictive.
Finally, if you want to write the word "night", you type the numbers
"64448", and it guesses the word "might" instead of "night". What do you
do? You simply press the star key, and the next guess is cycled and will
probably be "night". Remember to insert a space, 0, at the end of the word,
once you have selected the correct word.
I hope this helps you all, and if you want any more info about T9, or predictive, let me know. It is fantabulous and saves a lot of time.

Not as difficult as it might appear, Marie. But the big choice to be made is between predictive or not. Personally I've opted for not but keep thinking I may have made the wrong call on that.

Got there, thank you both, easy when you know how, will stop experimenting
with the thing for a while, not long I'm sure as I am curious by nature and
being able to use my mobile a bit more than just for making calls feels me
with great delight.
The next project is to learn to text efficiently.
Thanks again,
what would I do without you all!... Marie ----- Original Message ----- From: "Sunil" <bosley20@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Tuesday, May 16, 2006 3:46 PM Subject: [access-uk] Re: Nokia 6630 with talx
The battery is pressed up against the end of the phone which isn't the screen end. If you can't pull it out bang the phone down against your
Behalfhand or something and it'll fall out.

Hi Marie, Yes, it's quite easy to take out and replace the battery. If youphoneoff
the back cover by pressing the little catch at the bottom of theyou'lland
sliding the cover upwards, it should come off quite easily. Thenitfind the battery. It's pretty obvious where it is. Then just easeeasilyout, wait about a minute and then just slot it back into place and replace
the cover. I don't have any sight at all and I managed it quiteso
you shouldn't have any problems.
