Phil, it's not George.  Change of sex, Jackie here (grin).

TALKS does work on the N95, but the standard model where you have to purchase 
additional Micro SD cards to extend its memory capacity.  But TALKS is 
currently hanging on the 8GB version of the N95, as posted by Steve recently.

Is that ok?

Thanks for all your help by the way.

Jackie

  George,

  Doesn't Talks already work on the n95?

  I'm confused?!!

  Jackie, What I can't understand then is why at 
http://www.nokia.co.uk/A4221002# which Nokia claim is a listing of all phones, 
the N81 doesn't come up, yet the N95 does?  Or perhaps they've forgotten it.

  Personally, now that I have the N95 myself, I'd stay with that, if only 
because of the 5 megapixel camera.  The speech side (Talks, etc..) will I am 
quite sure be resolved in the very near future.

  George.

  George, I've just looked at the spec for it on
  www.expansys.com
  for my lad.

  It strikes me there are two things about the N81 8GB that seem to differ from 
the N95 8GB version.  Firstly, the N81 refers to micro SD cards which the N95 
8GB doesn't use I believe.  Secondly, the camera on the N81 is a lot less than 
the N95, the latter being 5M as opposed to the N81's 2M.  The N81 also seems to 
be more multimedia driven for gaming etc, but it's a hell of a lot cheaper on 
an unlocked basis on that website.

    Is the N81 actually a current model?  Although it's listed, it doesn't 
appear in the current list.

    George.

    I too would be interested in opinions, but not for Ian or myself.  Our son 
is looking for a good music phone with large storage as a combined 
birthday/Christmas present from the mugs who are his mum and dad (smiles).  And 
I only told him I'd think about it too!!

    But while he wouldn't need TALKS as a sighted user, I would be really keen 
to know if anyone has used the N81, which I've not come across before, and what 
it is like compared to the N95, which I've seen.  He has sort of got his heart 
set on the N95 8GB, and wants to combine music and phone into one device 
instead of having his Ipod attached to one arm, and his current mobile at the 
end of his other one.  Purely because I'm interested, and want to make sure 
that if we do buy him something like that he's getting a good deal, I'd value 
any comments.

      Hi,

      Yes back on mobile phones again!!

      Have been to a couple of phone shops today to have a feel of the n81 and 
n95 handsets before talking to my phone provider next week re a new contract.  
both phones would be good, I particularly like the music bias on the n81 and 
fact it comes in 8gb version.  is anyone out there using an n81 and if so any 
comments re it's features, talks etc?  Also I recall Steve Nutt commenting a 
few days ago that the 8gb n95 is currently not workable with talks, does this 
apply to the 8gb n81 too?

      Your comments / feedback much appreciated,

      With thanks,

      Phil
