Hi Jackie this is very helpful, thanks for taking the time, E mail is not essential but the internet access is important to me. Will keep an eye open for updates from Nuance on this, going the dreaded Christmas shopping (dragged screaming) this weekend so will have a look at both IPhone and N86 in the shop.

Hi Alistair I can vouch that the keypad and all other buttons on the N86 are excellent from a non-sighted perspective. As regards Talks, and as discussed manytimes on this list, it doesn't work properly with Email and Internet at themoment. But the N86 is a cracking handset, and I wouldn't let that put you off unless it is absolutely imperative that you need these applications right now.And, on the N86 theme, I got a nice pouch for mine the other day which I've been looking for now for some time. I can't use the phone in it, but what Ibought is certainly ideal for keeping it clean and free from scratches. I hope this helps.

Can someone confirm that neither of themajor screen readers for mobiles function fully with the n86? Or maybe someone knows of a alternitive which will work with talks which is wy fy, has GPS on board and is a good music player, the n86 seems to be most ofthese but also seems to be more of a digital camera than anything else whichdoes put me off a bit. Anyone currently using the N86? is the keyboard asgood as the N82? going into town at the weekend to have a look but all helpwould be appreciated. Off list E mail is below.
