I don't either. I have a sighted nephew and he's been given an iPhone at work and all he can do on it is make and receive calls as he is not at all technical. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Angel" <angel238@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

I am happy to hear it. Should I Ever go over there, I would want such a phone. Because I don't do all the fancy things these I-Phone, and android users do with their phones. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Eleanor Burke" <eleanorburke@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Hi Niamh

Welcome to the list.  Between us, we try to help one another and have
interesting views on assistive technology.
I would recommend the Nokia C5 to you, which will run the Talks software. If you haven't come across Talks, where have you been? (smile). It is a mini screen reader that allows you to use your phone as a sighted person 
would.

The RNIB sell the C5 with Talks, but you might also like to try
www.comproom.co.uk
or
www.creativeeyes.co.uk
I hope that puts you in the right direction. You will be pushed to find a 
handset with good buttons on it now unfortunately.


Kind Regards,

Jackie Cairns

Subject: [access-uk] Very simple talking mobile phone needed

I have survived for the last two years on a horrible RNIB talking phone
which looked and felt as if it belonged in an institution.
what I need is:
1.
a phone with good speech.
2.
buttons not a screen.
3.
I want to text and make calls, nothing more complex.
4.
I would ideally like it to work in Ireland and France as I visit quite
often.

Simplicity is my greatest need I would love to be able to either  walk
into
a mobile phone store or order on line and for it to work out of the box. 

All suggestions welcome, I am getting desperate?
Niamh
