but there is open source development for other screen reader software, such as Thunder, NVDA, Orca etc etc, why isn't; or there maybe, free open source screen reader software for mobile phones?

Ok, so we all agree that Talks has opened up the way we are now able to communicate with others via our mobiles. The fact is that if we want Talks on more than one phone we need to pay for an additional licence (still works out cheaper than JAWS) which is fair enough, otherwise how would future product development be possible? It would be nice if the mobile networks (02, T-mobile 3 and Orange) were to offer some kind of discount or meet half way in the costs but in reality that will probably not happen.

I have to absolutely agree with Steve here. Talks is an amazing bit of software for the price. It has revolutionised the way we are able to communicate, not just
with
the basic norms on a phone like texting and access to the calendar and
such
but, with virtually full access to the internet and things like Wayfinder Access too.

JAWS,
so what are you complaining about? All the best Steve -----Original Message----- From: talks-uk-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
