Ibrahim,
please spare a thought for some who find it more
difficult than you do to look things up and be sure of
getting all the information etc. Some are much older
than yourself, for example, and find constant work on
the computer more of a chore than an enjoyment,
especially when these looking-up things need to be done!
Also, although technical questions can't always be
answered correctly, if they are answered incorrectly
(whether it's a question of particular relevance to a
visually impaired person or not) I feel the company
concerned should take some responsibility. There's nothing wrong
with their saying "I
am not sure, I don't know" or even asking another
colleague, after all.
Anyway, I don't want to get too bogged down in all this,
nor do I want to be
on my soap box, and I do appreciate your help in many
matters; but just felt a word of caution to be in order
...
Regards:

Hi.
Yes, but also, it is up to the potential owner of a
phone to do their own research, the internet provides
bounty a plenty for the methodical researcher. Its no
good blaming the networks for everything. Accessibility is a specialist
subject yes, but personal
taste and feature requirements are down to the owner to
sort out. Don't ask me questions about this, but my
understanding is that before the end of the year, talks
may be in a position to support touch screens which
means phones like the N97 become fully accessible, but
I'm not taking questions as my knowledge is extremely
limited upon this point and any questions will be
ignored. Back to my earlier point though, I do wish
people would stop going on about the problems they've
had with particular networks and getting the wrong
information. If you can't be bothered to look things
up and spend the time checking out the competition both
on your own and other networks, you're going to be
limited in your scope when it comes to choice. All the best, Ibrahim.

Hi
If you took a contract on the basis of the information
given to you by vodafone, and that information was
wrong, not uncommon with vodafone, then the contract is
uninforcible. As we proved with our own experience.

Subject: [talks-uk] Update on the N85
Hi folks. OK. Here we go. in view of what some were
saying yesterday I went to the Voedafone store this
morning. I asked about the N85 and if it
had a touch screen element. The guy there said no it
hasn't. When I got home I called Voedafone and told
them what I was told yesterday by there colleague. The guy I spoke to
on the phone this morning said it did
have a touch screen but when I told him what I was
told on this list last night and
what the store assistant told me this morning he
disappeared for a few minutes and came back and told
me that it didn't have a touch screen element
but on the reviews and on the screen image he had it
looked as if it had. I'm not very pleased as I got a
new contract based on what the guy told me
yesterday. I would be happy to keep the 6210 but I
have felt it in the store this morning and it felt
really nice but has the Nokia headphone socket and not
the standard one. If I can find an adaptor to convert
the socket to a standard socket then I would keep it
but if I can't then I'll send it back. I want the
option to use high quality ear phones with my phone
and not the bog standard type and if they got damaged I
would be stuck and not be able to use the phone's
player other than via the mono speaker.
Does anyone know where I can get such an adaptor? and
soon as I have only 7
days from Wednesday to find one. Walter.
