Well at least I've learned something here Jackie. When sending via mobile phone does one still have to do the punctuation comb inations or is there an icon one can use for speed?

Hi Eleanor One says "smiley face" and the other one says "sad face". I think they are the only ones TALKS says though. I think they are great myself.

What voice are you using on your phone? I ask because someone asked me the very same question recently. She is using Daniel on her phone, and doesn't get the faces announced, only punctuation that is correct for the smiley or sad faces. I use the American Eloquence on mine, and it's always worked a treat. Just a thought.
