Hi Shirley, many thanks for your help, however the thing is Hannah doesn't want to be a Vodafone customer; she was just hoping to get a Talks-preinstalled phone from them and unlock it so she can use her O2 sim, but I doubt this is possible. Again many thanks for the help, and take care. ----- Original Message ----- From: "alloy design" <alloy.design@xxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue, 24 Jun 2008 20:57:20 +0100 Subject: [access-uk] Re: Possible new phone: Enquiries > Hello Chris, > > I have been looking into getting a new phone with some kind of speech > out-put. > > I am currently with Orange, and over-all am very happy with their service. > the only phone that has any speech out-put, from them is the Motorola V8.
