Debbie, I think it depends on your hearing impairment. I
have a hearing loss and when the volume is turned up to
maximum it is fine for me. There is a male voice
certainly on the IPod touch so you can change it. I am a
beginner so I may be talking rubbish. The pod is
wonderful and with the help of two young ladies on this
list I am getting there. Watch this space.....

What about people who have a nearing impairment and find
the Iphone voice difficult to hear, as I do as it is a
female voice and I understand that at present you can't
change the default voice that is the reason why I am
reluctant to go down that road at the moment as I can't
hear it all that
well.
So please can people stop being sarcastic and answer the
questions in a civilised and helpful manner or keep quiet
Debbie

Dave,
Why can't people ask a quite legitimate question without
it
being put down by a sarcastic comment? What will people
say
when Apple have killed off all the competition and there
is
no choice out there?

Hi,
TALKS only works on Nokia phones.
As the CEO of Nokia has admitted himself, Nokia has
missed
the boat,
and
if I were you, I would be looking at the I phone, with
which you do
not
need to purchase extra text to speech software, such as
TALKS, as it
has Voice over as standard, as with all Apple products.
Accessible straight out of the box, as it should be.
Cheers
Dave

to feel
