I am new to this list. I just purchased Talks and have a Nokia N 86. I downloaded a word document to my cell. The document is listed in my "file manager". When I open the file, the document is listed and visual to a sighted person. But, Talks does not read the document. How do get Talks to read a word document? Is there a better place to download these files? Thank you for any help.
