Hi Jackie,
Yes, I have one. Talks is lightning fast on it, just like it is on the N82,
and I do like the buttons on it. I like the slimness of it too. I just
don't like the fact it doesn't have Wifi.
All the best
Steve

Have you seen the 6220 Classic Steve? I've had a little play, and I
wouldn't personally want one. I found the buttons very small, and the
phone had a plastic feel to it that I wasn't wild about.
We'll see what happens eh?

Hi Jackie,
Yes, I think that will be the one. It is the only current phone that
has the Xenon flash, but I don't think KNFB are going to be able to be
so picky about the Xenon flash, as Nokia are moving away from it and
back to LED flash. So for now, KNFB works on the N82, and the N95, but
as you say, it should work on the newer FP3 (Feature Pack 3) phones such
as the 6220 Classic. If they open it up to non-xenon phones, then you
will see it on phones like the N96, N85, etc.
In summary then I think when they release the next version, you will see
KNFB Reader on a much wider range of phones. This is only my opinion of
course, but limiting KNFB Reader to Xenon-only phones will end up being
a loser for them.
All the best
Steve

Hi Graham
I think the 6220 Classic is the one favoured by K-NFB to replace the
N82.

Hi all.
Now that N82 is no longer available, what will the KNFB reader work
with?
Regards
Graham
