Yes, Jackie, that makes sense. Did you notice if it has dedicated music keys? 
I've heard conflicting reports as to if this phone is a music player in the way 
the N91 is, or just a phone like the rest that can play music. I'd hate to lose 
the music player feature on the N91! -

  Andy, they are a bit like the N91 buttons, but I think the columns are 
slightly wider apart from left to right.

  The joystick doesn't stick up.  It is a square, the outer edges of which act 
as your arrow keys, with the indentation in the middle being your select.

  Does that make sense?

  I think it is less bulky than the N91 yes, but I couldn't actually hold it as 
the dummy model was attached to the wall, and I didn't want to pull it in case 
I got everyone running!!

  The N82 certainly has a large screen on the front, and there is no sliding 
door.  I didn't find a specific lock on the phone like the N91 has either, so 
it looks as if you have to do a combination to achieve that.

    Jackie - Are the buttons on the N82 rectangular like on the N91, or are 
they more square?

    Over all, would you say it was less bulky than the N91? -

      Hi All

      I stuck my nose out the door today in a rare trip to town.  While there, 
I had a nose at the N82 mobile which is the phone supporting the K-NFB Reader 
software.

      For anyone who hasn't seen it, the N82 has a large display which occupies 
quite a chunk of the front of the handset.  Below this, in the centre, is a 
square which acts as your four-way joystick with an indentation in the middle 
for the accept key.  To the right of this square is a backspace which is a 
raised button, while the menu button is an indented button to the left of the 
square.

      Below this, the usual keypad is raised, with a slight separation between 
each column.  There is a USB slot on the left-hand side of the phone, while the 
call and end buttons are situated on the left and right edge of the phone.  
There is a headphone socket near the power button along the top of the unit.

      My impression is that I really like the buttons on this handset, but it 
was attached to a bracket on the wall in the shop, so I couldn't do much with 
it other than feel about.  But it gave me enough movement to see it looks quite 
interesting.  The phone is silver, including the buttons, so I don't know what 
sort of a contrast this would make for someone with useful vision.

      Hope this is of some help.

      Jackie
