I would also genuinely be interested to know if one could drop in to say a high 
street mobile phone store
  and purchase a Talks-supported nokia off  the shelf (linked to no particular 
provider); I doubt it yet at any rate! 

  Fingers crossed for the future though! 

  Trust that I won't have to clarify this post too! (smile)!

  Tony if I may correct you a little, this has nothing to do with Vodafone only 
offering a few phones with Talks.  Talks works on a certain cymbian platform 
and works best wish phones with tactile keyboards.  However, the Talks 
developers are doing their best to keep up with Nokia and other phone 
manufacturers to provide Talks on touch screen phones.  I think Vodafone are to 
be commended for providing Talks free of charge rather than critising them for 
not providing sufficient types of phones.

    Hi Jackie, 

    As I understand it, Vodafone provide Talks free of charge so consequently 
they pay! 

    Now they are only prepared to offer this on a couple of older phones. 

    I know it's a bit of a pain as you can't have it free from them on say 
newer phones but that's how it is I'm afraid.

      Dear Eleanor,

        The one thing stopping Jackie from buying her own phone would be the
      price.  If you want to purchase a handset without an airtime contract,
      the cost can be prohibitively expensive.  And then she'd have to buy
      and install the TALKS software herself.  A daunting prospect for many
      non-techies,

      John
