I have installed Talks and the other screen reader on an N75, 6650, N85 from scratch. This topic has been well discussed in the past on how to install ascreen reader with out any sighted help. I know some of the new phones you do need help with. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Bernard Hemmings" <li...@bhemmings.net> To: "Talks Mailing List" <talks@talksusers.com> Sent: Thursday, September 02, 2010 8:21 AM Subject: Re: [Talks] Suggestion: allow one to try voices
Truly none of the models I have ever purchased do this please tell us more. I know many talks users who live alone would very much like this solved. This is one of the reasons the iphone is popular. I think nuance would get a lot of customers back if people when purchasing a new phone could install talks without the need to borrow a set of eyes. So you say this is possible on most models let's hear some then.
