I hadn't realised, stupid as this probably sounds, that upgrading to a smart phone with Talks was an option. I'm going to have to upgrade soon and have been thinking the choice is android or ifone, in which case I'd probably go for android. ...But Nokia is an option too. As always, would be glad to learn more of peoples' opinions.

Dear Sandra I've been a mobile phone user with Talks for probably about 10 years now and have recently upgraded from a Nokkia 6210 slide phone to a Nokkia E5 with qwerty keyboard. This is a smartphone and is truly fantastic and the professional version of talks works really well. There is a good tactile marking just below the number 5 key which is also the "G" key and although its taken a bit of getting use to I find it fantastic and wouldn't want to be without it. I use the hone for testing, emails, internet, note pad and listening to MP3 files and all works well with Talks and the qwerty keyboard. I use the phone entirely through touch as I'm completely blind and a touch typist. Hoe this helps - go for it Sandra!
