[access-uk] Re: oasys 22c

Pretty much the entire E and N series phones have Symbian 60 operating systems 
on them for TALKS to go on.  In addition the 6220 classic can also accept talks 
which is one of the cheaper alternatives.  To get a phone that will take any 
SIM card (including perhaps a local PAYG SIM when you go to India) you would 
need an unlocked phone.  If you buy a phone with a monthly contract it is 
almost certainly going to be locked to whoever to that phone carrier until such 
time as they recover the subsidised price of the phone from your monthly spend 
which therefore retricts which networks you can use it with.  An alternative 
(although expensive initially) is to buy your phone SIM free at an unsubsidised 
price from places like Expansys and others. I am sure someone on the list can 
give you the hot tip on where are the cheapest places to buy a SIM free phones 
from.
 
To get TALKS installed you would need a PC with the Nokia PC suite installed on 
it.  The software is licensed per phone via its IMEI number.  If you decide 
later to change your phone there is a £50 transfer fee to another handset.

Thanks for that, and to you Chris for your input.
What does simbion mean?
can i get a phone which will take any sim card? i have one for india and one 
for the UK and the advantage of an oasys 22C is that I can put any sim card in 
to it and it will work.
Can I do that?
Which phones do I look at?
How do I get the talks software put on the phone?
How many phones can I put the software on?
Any ideas?
I have no experience with this, so any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks
Ayesha x x x

Ayesha,
 
The best solution really to go for a talks phone.  This will give you all the 
functionality you want including, being able to fully edit text messages.  You 
also have the advantage of being able to sinc to a PC and of course, all the 
additional programs which are on a simbian phone and, the ones which you can 
add to it.  You are also able to email and use the internet on them.  This is 
of course dependant on your tarriff etc.  Talks in general is very stable and I 
think your friend might have had some compatibility issues or was using an old 
phone and version.  Talks will work on a wide range of nokia mobile phones but 
of course, they must be simbian based.
 
HTH
 
Steve

        Cheers for that clive. You know, on the RNIB's website under the phones 
description, it clearly states that you can edit text messages.
        Does anyone know if there is a better phone out there?
        My oasys 22C is kind of broken and I desperately need a new talking 
phone of some kind.
        I did think of getting talks software but I had a friend who had it and 
it kept crashing on his phone every 2 days. My family are scattered all over 
the world and I need to be available 24 hours a day 7 days a week just in case 
there is a problem, three of my four grandparents died suddenly and without my 
oasys 22C I wouldn't have been able to be contacted or to contact anyone else 
so I need the phone which is the most reliable regardless of expense.
        Can anyone help?
