Philip,
I'd drop Dolphin support an e-mail and I am sure they would take a look at
the software and try and map it.

Hi all,
I have a pocket P.C. running a sat, nav. in my wife's car. I had hoped that
that Pocket Hal would make this programme accessible, but it does not. It
only seems to work with the programmes preloaded on the system. The same is
true for Mobile Speak Pocket.
It seems a lot of money to me.
Philip

Hi.
I'll save Andrew the trouble. Dolphin computers sell Pocket hal and during
the launch offer which I'm not sure is still on but may be, the price is
£395 or £495 for full retail version out of offer time. In other words, a
good PDA will cost you less than pocket hal in any event.
Best wishes, Ibrahim

Hi Andrew
Do you mind if I ask how much Pocket Hal cost? And what can you run it with?

Hi.
That was probably hal for pocket PC or Pocket Speeks from Coding Workshop.
Ridiculus I think.

Yes, I found a product to make PDA's accessible last night and as soon as I
got excited about this new possibility, I read the rice tag - £300.00!

Just think about it. With all these multimedia applications like mobile TV
and video etc, the one screen will act as an interface and viewing screen.
I think it was the Ipod or something similar that was the first device that
really took off with a graphical Mac like file browser interface. Now of
course, you can use them for videos you can download from Itunes and I bet
mobiles will soon join the rank and file with similar services. Another
problem is that Symbian though made accessible only works on a quarter of
the world's smart phones. Most of the others use Microsoft Windows CE, XP
Tablet edition or third party proprietary software. There are products for
Microsoft Pocket PC like Pocket Hal, but they are mighty expensive.

Hi.
Well, just wait. The trend now is for the touch screen and graphical
interface.

I had looked at the RNIB phone but I didn't really think it very practial
(Like many things from the RNIB). I know the phones are not designed for
Talks and we're only lucky we can use them by chance, that's the problem! By
nature the phones that are compatible with Talks are the camera/vidio ones
and that is really annoying when you were used to using a small phone and
didn't want to go backwards.

Hi Barbara,
The only reason we can have smart phones that can handle Talks is that we
are on the back of a successful mainstream product line. The mass market is
for a phone with camera and display and we have to go along with it.
If you really don't want to have the screen then use the Oasis from the
RNIB. Sadly it is not a mainstream product and although having no display
is no smaller or cheaper.

The 3230 is fairly sized but from going from using non-Talks phones such as
the 1100, 3100 etc to the Talks compatible models it is a big leap in size.
And all because of a massive screen we don't even need!

Hi.
Well, I saw the N70 as I was offered it as a free upgrade but it isn't worth
the Extra. I have a 6680 which suits me fine.

Hi Ibraham,
The consolation is that the smaller the phone the harder it is to find. I
have an N70 which has the advantage of being thin, and fits in my pocket
without a bulge.

Hi Everyone.
In response to Barbra's question, I have looked at the Symbian device list
and it would seem that only a limited number of phones can run talks as most
of the other manufacturers use either phones with touch screens or the new
graphical symbian interface called UIQ.
Unfortunately, I can't find any phone that runs the S60 interface that
doesn't have a camera. I don't know about size, but you can be sure that
most of the phones that are coming out these days will have these large
screens and high resolution cameras which will inevitably mean chunky units
for the foreseeable future. If anyone knows any different, please fill us
in on this.
Best wishes, Ibrahim Gucukoglu
