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...

Also does the n86 take a micro SD memory card and whats the capacity memory?

setting it to basic your arrow keys will start programs directly. You need
to set your arrow keys up in the Settings when in basic mode. Also accessing
the menu is easy! You just press the talks key twice. This is the same
regardless of how you have it set Basic or horizontal.
Yes the N8

settings for setting the bit rate for the different kind of connection in

Yes it was given in the release notes about reading HELP information like on

Earlier I had speculated that a memory leak in Talks may be contributing
to these memory full errors. This was based on a incomplete search I did
on the web. After that speculation, it was pointed out to me that
sighted userws, who weren't running Talks, were also seeing these memory

Hi.
Ok the cover of the n86 difficult to take off for a reason, and that reason
is it holds the memory card in place.
turn the phone over in your hand so the back is facing up towards the
ceiling and the camera is furthest away from you. The lower half of the
cover is flat below the lens slider.
I'm using this new TALKS on my N82 and it's working just fine. So far
I haven't had any more of the memory full issues which is great.
Can someone please either post a direct link or email me a link or the
