Well if that's the case Barry I'd go down the iPhone route, because I don't like Mobile Speak, it's too slow and sluggish for my liking.

Perhaps we could switch to Mobilespeak? Yes, it means that any of our investment in Talks is going to go to waste, and also means that we have to pay for another speech software system, but it's an option.

Nokia have today announced that they are partnering with MicroSoft and will be using the Microsoft Windows Mobile 7 operating system which is presently inaccessible. The noise suggests that the Symbian operating system, which Talks runs on, will be sidelined. So, by extension, does this mean that Talks is now dead in the water? I speak as a long time Talks user who would be a bit disappointed if so. Is Apple iPhone the only choice left now? .Damon Damon Rose Senior Content Producer Ouch! website and talk show BBC Vision Learning Tel: 020 8752 4427 (x0224427) email: damon.rose@xxxxxxxxx Twitter: @damonrose bbc.co.uk/ouch is home of the Ouch!
