Hi Saqib

I can tell you from the info I have that Mobile Speak will indeed work with 
touch-screen phones when the new release becomes available.  I don't know any 
more as I am a Talks user, but that is my understanding.

Hi. Does any Talks dealer know if a version of Talks is going to be released 
for the Nokia touch screen phones. I have tried the current version on the N97 
mini and found that the phone is accessible to the point of reading and writing 
text messages and navigating the menus along with accessing calender and 
contacts. I only need to look at the screen if I am writing a text message with 
the on screen number display and to select key one and two. The web can be read 
by Talks but when I select a link I get taken to a different page entirely. Now 
this is all acceptible to me given the fact that Talks doesn't officially 
support touch screen devices and my question really was that how long are we 
expected to wait for a release that would support touch screen phones from 
Nokia. I hate the way Nuance leave us in the dark about future developments and 
Codefactory are already discussing their next release of Mobile Speak 4 which 
is to be released in the new year. If there is no official news by the time MS4 
is released then I will just by MS4.
