[Talks] Current smallest/thinnest Talks-compatible phone?
Hi Folks, last time I checked, the smallest/thinnest keypad Talks-compatible phone was the Nokia C5 - does anyone know if there's anything smaller/thinner now available please? I'm looking for something that is less of a brick than my N86, relatively speaking, to have as a second phone...

[Talks] Love my C5 but big problem with Calendar - can you help please?
Hi folks, just gone to a new C5 from an N86 and love it, but am having a massive problem with the calendar, and I rely heavily on it! If I open a day and try to arrow down through appointments, it doesn't give the time of the appointment and there seem to be lots of lines between some appointments where it says nothing and I'm not sure whether I've done the last appointment or not. Can someone confirm whether the calendar works anywhere near as well as it does on the N86 please? If so, have you got any ideas what I'm doing wrong? I suspect that it could be either a setting that I have wrong in TALKS, or else it's a setting in the calendar views etc. Any help would be extremely gratefully received as I would love to continue with the C5.

[Talks] Further to Calendar, seems to be a bug!
Firstly, I have tried all the font sizes in Nokia settings and none make any difference. Secondly, I should have been clearer about what it was about how the N86 calendar works that I like. When I opened calendar, I was able to arrow left and right over the days, and a down or up arrow would move forward or back a week, probably in a sort of grid layout. ##In my C5, this operation works fine, but it also reads out a list of the appointments with the correct times, which is not a problem. In my N86, I could then press select on the day and it would open with a list of the appointments and I could arrow down or up through them hearing the appointment with the time, which is the critical bit for me. This is where I'm having the no-time reading problem, as well as the blank lines issue. I need this view so that I can quickly check my schedule and meetings, and so that I can delete or reschedule them easily. Is this possible with the C5? Secondly, and seems like a bug to me, I tried changing TALKS speak punctuation to none, and as soon as I went into calendar and it reads out the list of appointments for the day as in the sentence marked ## above, , TALKS simply crashes after about the second appointment, and it did it consistently. I did try moving to another day just in case it's one of those confounded letter combinations that used to crash JAWS at one time! Any thoughts would be gratefully received!

Re: [Talks] Handy Safe or accessible alternative for Nokia C5?
Hi Davy, thanks so much for this suggestion, it works fantastic on the C5 and, at one euro or whatever it is at the moment, it's virtually being given away! I think that Handy Safe is brilliant after trying it on my N86, but at £30+ it's a bit steep! I like the fact that there's a PC utility for Handy Safe where you can create or update records and then they can be synchronised with the phone, and I reckon that's the only benefit, certainly not worth that much extra cash... I realise you can import and export from the C5 with Best Safe, but it's as a text file and I'll need to play with it a bit if I'm to get my head round how to create one so that it imports to the phone and displays properly...

[Talks] New version of Talks & OVI Maps - broken?
Hi folks, has anyone tried the new version of the Talks software with OVI Maps? It appears to be broken on my Nokia C5, latest firmware with the latest version of Talks released this week but running the previous version of Eloquence. Could someone try it on your phone and confirm whether it's working for you or not if you get a few minutes please? I haven't trawled through it very far, but the route overview no longer reads for me, so I haven't actually been out with it to find out if the keys that give other info about what's going on work or not... My Internet on the phone now works again, but one step forward, one back!

Re: [Talks] Latest talks and maps - the actual subject!
Hi Marcus, do you know if it's just me or is TALKS with Nokia OVI Maps broken with the latest version of TALKS? I posted my experience at the end of last week but haven't seen any responses to confirm either way. I am using a Nokia C5 with the latest phone and map firmware released about 6-7 weeks ago.

Hi Bernard, latest talks. I probably miss understood stephen when he was talking about the old eloquence with the latest talks as I understood that using the old eloquence with the latest talks prevented speech during calls. Just to clarify - this statement is essentially true, but it only affects Symbian^3 phones. There, the new version of TALKS and the 16kHz version of Eloquence are both absolutely required to get speech on a call. On other phones, where 8/11kHz Eloquence was good enough before, you can chose whichever Eloquence works best for you (either 123 or 125). As said before, when switching Eloquence versions, I would always suggest starting at a volume factor of 100% (in Audio Settings), and only increase it gradually to find which amount of distortion at higher factors is still acceptable to you. ciao marcus ___ Talks mailing list Talks@talksusers.com http://lists.talksusers.com/mailman/listinfo/talks Hosting of this list provided courtesy of: eHosting Limited: http://www.ehosting.com/ and Talknav Inc. http://www.talknav.net/ __ Information from ESET Smart Security, version of virus signature database 6385 (20110817) __ The message was checked by ESET Smart Security. http://www.eset.com __ Information from ESET Smart Security, version of virus signature database 6385 (20110817) __ The message was checked by ESET Smart Security. http://www.eset.com ___ Talks mailing list Talks@talksusers.com http://lists.talksusers.com/mailman/listinfo/talks Hosting of this list provided courtesy of: eHosting Limited: http://www.ehosting.com/ and Talknav Inc. http://www.talknav.net/
[Talks] Phone upgrade, any suggestions?
Hi folks, my contract with O2 has just run out and I'm due an upgrade. I currently have an N86 and a C5, both of which work fine at the moment, but signed up for an iPhone 2 weeks ago, which I returned today as I found the touch screen interface usable but extremely slow. I am back to TALKS, happily, and wondered if anyone can suggest a current high-end Nokia with a normal numeric keyboard? I understand that the next version of TALKS will work with an upcoming version of symbion, perhaps it is called Bell? Does anyone know if that will give access to newer phones that offer worthwhile enhancements? I rely heavily on the phone for my diary and would like to be able to synch it with my work Outlook calendar, ideally online. Other than that, I do a bit of internet browsing, mainly for news and weather, and a lot of texting. I would like to be able to use push email too, but that is not a significant issue. Any suggestions would be much appreciated!

Move Talks so that it is at the top of bottom of your menu. This away you can just go into the Menu and press Select or press Up arrow (list mode) and then select to get into the Talks settings. 2.
