I was talking to a VI friend who is a bit of a phone buff the other day
and he was telling me about the Motorola V8, which has built-in speech,
so you don't need Talks on it. It also has speech input to control many
of the functions. The speech can read your contacts, most of the menus,
text messages you receive, though strangely not ones you write.
Apparently, there are more of these types of phone coming to the market,
including some Nokias and I know Siemens are working on this too,
because they contacted BCAB for advice a year ago.
I think you would need to see one working before deciding whether or not
it is suitable, but worth considering, I think, if you have the time to
do the research.

Hi All,
I want to upgrade my phone. The one I have now is a Nokia 6680. I love
it, but it's not holding it's charge any more.
There is a pretty good range of Talks Compatible phones out there
nowadays, and I'm wondering if anyone has a recommendation.
I liked the look of the Nokia E50, but I don't think this is available
any
more.
The Nokia E65 and the Nokia N73 look interesting too, but haven't those
handsets been around for a long time now?
I want something small, and I don't really care about features... As
long
as I can call and text (I sound like my Dad!). Something relatively new
and up to date too.
So, what have ya got, and what do you think of it?
All the best,
Tony
