Hi Yvonne

I've sent a text to it and it just vibrates when on silent.  Also, although 
I have talks set to announce caller after ten seconds, it didn't do so when 
in silent.  So, not too disturbing really.

Cheers

Barry

hi Barry
i tried that last night and got the same reaction unlike my e90 where the
mute needs to be on
however i would like to know if the same applies to test messages i can't
find my spare sim card and when i do it will have no credit
could you send a text to your n86 in the same way as a voice call and let me
know  if the tune you have assigned plays
thank you
Yvonne
