I struggled when I tried about three times running ... and on the fourth I got there and now love it! It does take a bit of perseverance.
For me the secret was just getting to know when I'd have the right word spoken and not to worry about the jibberish I heard beforehand. I do now listen to the jibberish because I'm usually able to spot when I put in a wrong key press and so I do even find it helpful to listen to that now.
I can't text twhen I'm too tired. It does take a fair amount of concentration for me.
Hope this might help a bit. -- Carol carol.pearson29@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx On Twitter: http://twitter.com/songbird49a ---- Original Message ---- From: "Saqib" <Saqib500@xxxxxxxxxxx> To: <talks-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Tuesday, August 18, 2009 1:25 PM Subject: [talks-uk] Re: Spell Word announcement

When writing a message in predictive text mode and I wrote a word that the predictive text dictionary didn't know, Talks would announce something like 'spell word'. I would then press Key 1 to go into Spell mode, enter the correct word and press Key 1 again to accept the word and go back to writing my message. I'm now using an N82 and although I hear the beep to tell me that Spell mode is required, I don't get the announcement. Is there anyway I can get Talks to announce Spell Word or is this just a quirk with the N82. I'm using Talks Premium V4.
