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
