I have very fast speed on the Nokia Talks Phones. Now I know we will not
wish to get in to a discussion on the Nokia Talks phones as they are in
decline so I am happy to leave the thread at this.

I would never go back to a keypad phone. The touch screen is just so much more versatile.

I did not use a phone with speech until 1997 and then I only had the Nokia 3212 with no speech. My first Talks phone was from Vodafone in the UK where they put on Talks free of charge. Now of course Talks has come to the end of its development and Nokia phones not far behind. This is very disappointing. I felt I had to force myself to the iPhone and there is no doubt that it is like carrying a hand-held computer around with me but good that I am with gestures and residual vision, I miss the Talks Nokia phone every day. still have a few Talks phones, Nokias with qwerty but now even web browsing is getting so slow on these and I cannot access my e-mails any more on them. Can only use now for phone calls and texting but I think it will be with me forever!!!

I think there will always be a need for specialist companies. Catering to us blind, or deaf-blind patrons. Because, there will always be people who don't feel comfortable using these new fangled touch screens. I am one such. I still use a phone with the talks screen reader on it.
