o yes. it is for symbian and the smart phones based on windows. I am planning to write the program for all symbian and windows based phones, for now, but will explore the possibility of writing java based ones in the future.

Oh one thing you say it will be for Nokia. I think you mean Simbion. With
that in mind what version only the 60 series or what?

Hi Lora.  It will be for both nokia and the windows ce based phones.  Mine
will be 1 license per user, free minor upgrades and perhaps 20 or 30 dollars for major upgrades should you upgrade from a version you already own. As I
said, mine will be a matter of a hundred dollars or slightly more rather
than being hundreds of dollars.  Cheers!

What series of mobile phones are you writing this for?
I have a Nokia N73 with Mobilespeak.
And BTW -- I just heard that Codefactory (the developers of
Mobilespeak) have just relaxed their licensing to allow one license
per user, not one license per phone, so you don't have to go through
all the hoops every time you get a new phone.
Thanks. Sounds like an interesting project.

screenReader


Hi all.  Within a few days, i would have finished developing an
alternative screen reader for mobile phones which would hopefully be a
cheaper and more flexible replacement to talx and mobilespeak.  I
would like to give an opportunity and priority for a few members of
the list to beta test my product.  I have not come up with a name for
this mobile screen reader yet, so feel free to come up with one and
let me know.  The screen reader is written with visual c++ and
developed on visual studio 2005 using the smart phone device emulator.
I will only allow for 5 applicants, and one very important criteria is
the ability to positively contribute to the development of the
software, either in programming terms or in usability.
If you have the inclination to help me with this, please write to me
privately.  Selected beta testers will be given a free copy of the
full working software.  I am sorry that i'll not be able to pay
financially, but i hope the gift of the software and the satisfaction
of seeing the development through will be enough of a reward.  Thanks
and cheers!
