Steve, just had my first look at an n86 this afternoon, and it's definitely going to be my next phone.Cheers Alex -------------------------------------------------- From: "Steve Nutt" <steve@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Thursday, October 01, 2009 10:21 PM To: <talks-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: [talks-uk] Re: n97 and talksHi,Sorry, I wouldn't say the E71 showers over the iPhone. It's not a bad phone,but it lacks memory, has a cheap audio cheip that Talks has to use workarounds to fix, and Nokia have generally cut corners. If you want a phonethat showers on the iPhone, then the N86 has to be it.

It'sfar too fiddly when you need to take notes or numbers when out and about. Itmay well be usable but not to a degree where one could operate a touch device with confidence and ease. My E71 showers all over the I-Phone all round. I think you know what that term means. -------------------------------------------------- From: "DurDevil" <durdevil@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Thursday, October 01, 2009 7:15 PM To: <talks-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: [talks-uk] Re: n97 and talksits better than just a touch screen though as has a keyboard too. Its a real IPhone killer! looking at the N86 and n97 the people at Nokia aredoing some awesome work! And i think the Nuance guys are doing an amazing job keeping up with this rapidly growing technology and us blind folk havenever had such Accessibility in our pockets! Just imagine someone with say, a N86 with talks, KNFB & WFA when all fully supported - hello independence! Go go gadget er um phone?!! Oh neil i know off topic but will WFA work on the N97 once talks does? -original message- Subject: [talks-uk] Re: n97 and talks From: "Barbara Wilson" <barkingbabs@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: 01/10/2009 6:53 pmMe too Neil. I don't think no matter how good it would be I would ever optfor a touch screen. But I can see why others might.

Having said this it will not be the way I go when it does come out, I'm just more productive with a keypad / keyboard. ---Neil Barnfather TalkNav TalkNav is a Nuance Accessibility software reseller and authorizeddistributor of Wayfinder products, with product activation codes delivereddirect to your mailbox, why not try TalkNav today? www.talknav.com www.wayfinderaccess.com Telephone from the UK: 0844 412 1062 Telephone outside the UK: +44 161 277 7997 From: talks-uk-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:talks-uk-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Barbara Wilson Sent: 01 October 2009 15:48 To: talks-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [talks-uk] Re: n97 and talks Neil Having used an HP iPaq in the past with touch screen, I've never been impressed.
