I an sure that was a very positive experience for you Jackie. I was told by someone working in RNIB showroom about a shop and I travelled far to the shop. When I got there they told me that they never put Talks on a phone for demonstration purposes! Luck of the draw. Eleanor -original message- Subject: [Bulk] [talks-uk] Re: upgrading from Vodafone talks? From: "Jackie Cairns" <jackie.cairns@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: 20:01:2009 11:50 am There was one chap in the Vodafone shop I used to deal with before I moved to Northampton who was great with his general attitude towards Talks. He had it on his own phone so he said he could demo it to people who were interested, and the few visually impaired customers who came his way. I thought that was really quite refreshing to be honest.

My experience is that they really do know about it. Just yesterday, I spoke to a guy and I have to say, when I first started talking about Talks, he didn't sound as though he did know but, then he mentioned Simbian and Talks working with that platform and I knew he was another convert <smile>!

Why doesn't he just ask Vodafone to install Talks on his new handset? No need to confuse Vodafone with upgrading, he still has the option of getting Talks with the new phone as he did with his old phone.
