Hi Stuart,

Just a quick mail as the weekend descends upon us!

You obviously deal with the Talks people, Nuance a bit as you sell their
Talks software!

Would it be possible for you perhaps within the next week or so to have a
word with them and see if they can enlighten us on the matter?

In all fairness they may not be aware of their hyperlinks not  working and
possibly would appreciate feedback of that!

Thanks.

Tony.
