Hello Steve,

The phone has its limitations.  The speech is not too bad and like most
artificial voices gets mastered fairly quickly.  The "spanglish" observation
is a bit far-fetched.  I do not recognise the issue of crashes except once
when I dropped the phone and the battery terminals suffered.

As I intimated in my initial message, I did not want a "feature rich" mobile
and the phone in question suited.  As the old saying goes, "One man's meat
is another man's .......... ".  I think the issue of suitability is rather
like the debate about Jaws vs Window Eyes, Norton vs Other security systems
and so on.

Good to hear from you and kind regards as usual,


Denis


I haven't had the crashing problems you refer to

Hi Denis,

You are the first person I have heard to say that the Auasys is reliable.
It usually crashes all over the place from the reports I have heard, and the
speech is some kind of Spanglish.  It is hard work!

All the best

Steve

Hello Brian,

I chose the Owa-sys phone because I did not want an all singing and dancing
mobile phone.  

The phone is essentially only useful for calls and text messaging.  It has
some fancy features like ringing tones plus the essential date/time and
phone book features.  It is a robust and reliable mobile.

I use a Vodafone Pay-as-you-go tarriff and find buying voice packs at £25
for 200 mins the best value.  Also, from time-to-time, I top up the calling
credit for texts etc and £25 worth goes a long way in my case.

HTH.

Denis
