Hi all - I now have Skyped installed, and an account set up, via my phone.
Need to go online now and buy some credit. not sure how much to buy as I
can't find out how much it is to call the UK from Morocco. The hotel has
wifi, but not for free, and I don't know if there are free wifi cafes
anywhere to be had. Is there a difference between wifi and lan? -
Andy

That is correct, it is a 3rd edition phone. On the blind sea web site, it
states where to place the file in order for Talks to pick it up. It also
states to turn off and on your handset after putting the file in the
correct place.

I'm not Stephen, but the N82 is not a 5th edition phone. I'd have to
check the specs myself, but I would guess that it is a 3rd edition
phone, as opposed to say a 2nd edition phone. I'm not sure how old the
N82 is, but like I said, it's absolutely definitely not a 5th edition
phone.

Hi again Stephen - Sorry. My error was to think I'd find these other
files in the TALKS.zip folder, but have now found them in their own
Skype.zip folder.
Can you confirm for me that my N82 is a third edition and not fifth
edition phone?
When I come to install the dictionary file to work with Skype, do I
just install it in the TALKS folder?

Having downloaded the zip file, I found there was no dictionary file,
and only one TALKS file, so don't know if it's the third or fifth
edition. The only files apart from the manuals were:
Daisy2go install file.
D2go_2_00_2_signed.sisx
Eloquence UK english file.
Eloquence_eng_6_1_123.sisx
Eloquence US english file.
Eloquence_enu_6_1_123.sisx
Talks install file all languages.
talks_501_1_signed.sisx

5th edition install file. There is also the Talks dictionary to put

blind sea web site before using the zip file. That away you have a
better idea of what needs to be done.

Hi Andy,
You can download it in a zip file from Blindsea and then unzip and
install
on your phone. Make sure you download the one with a 3 in it.

Thanks for this, Allan.
Just looking at the Skype website, it says:
It's free to use Skype in a WiFi zone. If you use Skype with a
mobile data
connection, operator charges may apply, so we recommend an unlimited
data
plan.
So as long as I can find a free wifi cafe or similar in Morocco, then I
should be ok.
In terms of downloading the software for my mobile, it wants me to
do it via
my phone in an sms. I don't know how large the programme is, but not
having
a data plan, would rather download via my PC to avoid data charges from
T-Mobile.

A: nothing special on installing skype to n82, just launch the
installer and
follow the instructions.
Q: In terms of using wifi, is it normal to walk in to an internet
cafe, and
just search for a wifi access point and select it, to
start making calls?
A: i'm not so sure about the availability of wifi spots in Morocco, but
usually you can get some in those fast food store or some
cafe. you also might be able to get some free wifi connection in
hotels.
HTH.

you can use skype with wifi connection, but not sure which phone you
are
using. your operator will not charge you if you connect
using wifi.

Subject: [Talks] Using Skype on an N82
I have a sim only contract with T-Mobile in the UK. I'll be in
Morocco for a
couple of weeks, and need to keep in touch. I know
Skype can be used with TALKS on a mobile, but have no experience of
what I
need to do to use the Skype service. I know I'll need to
install the software for mobiles, and probably buy some Skype
credits, will
I then have to find a hot spot in Morocco to use Skype,
and will T-Mobile charge me for using Skype in addition to me buying
Skype
credits?
Thanks for any help -
Andy
