Hi, Sure, I'll feedback on the N8 once I've played with it - or rather taken it apart and rebuilt it in my case 'smile'.
I wasn't expecting Talks to run on it, so that is no big surprise. I must disagree with you on the screen reader front, I think they will definitely try something, but I would agree with you on the extent of the 'reading' ability being questionable. Thanks again. _______________________________________ Have a pleasant day, Kind Regards and Best Wishes, Hussein.
