The speech delay shouldn't have anything to do with whether this command works. It is more likely coursed by the Talks key time out setting or the Talks mode time out but I'm sure you said in a previous mail that you were set to never time out and single commands which should be fine.

That appeared a little slow to me ... but maybe I'll leave it set at 0.5 and test out some web pages.

Thanks Eleanor.

Chris,

Speech delay was at 0S, but I've put this to Default (though am not
sure what "Deafault" is).
Talks key is set to timeout forever!
Talks Mode Timeout Single Commands (I haven't really touched and
don't understand ...)

Carol, what's the setting for Talks Key timeout? That could be
affecting how you're interacting with Talks commands. Unlike JAWS
you never hold the Talks key down with some exceptions, such as
selecting text, which in that case! You press the Talks key twice
on some phones, the second time you hold whilst arrowing.

Talks - reading a page with one keystroke?Hi,

This key stroke, I find, is a little temperamental.  I sometimes
have to do it a few times before it finally works ... then it will
stop again ...  (I'm using an N95 by the way.)  Perhaps it's all in
the timing of those key strokes, I don't know.  I'm never quite sure
whether you should press the Talks key, followed quite quickly by
the down arrow, or still be holding the Talks key whilst hitting
the down arrow.  Perhaps someone could clarify how it's meant to
work.  I've tried both ways but still find it a bit hit and miss
myself.
Hi Damon, It should be Talks down arrow.

Cheers,
Amro

Hi.
I'm using Talks 3.5 on my Nokia N82.
When I want to read a web page on my mobile, I find myself
constantly arrowing down which is a bit of a strain on my
thirtysomething fingers. Poor me.
Is there a way of reading an entire page with one keystroke, like
with insert down arrow in Jaws?
Thanks
...Damon
