Niel, why say Mobile Speak users don't get free upgrades? They have only ever charged for one upgrade so far, to version 4. I already know from Caroline that upgrading to version 5 will be free.

I'm not saying Code Factory will never charge for an upgrade ever again, but, surely, now that you sell Mobile Speak as well as Talks, and if dealer support is a justification for the Talks transfer fee, shouldn't the info you give on both be accurate? That way customers will know all the facts before deciding which to go for.

I like to have both screen readers available to me, so I'm not having a go about the fee. It's still more affordable than the sim-based license for this girl with a handbag full of Nokias. LOL!

in that instance then your MS license became better value for money half way through your second transfer of phones. not bad, but equally still not amazing.

Hi Neil. I've changed handsets 3 times.

you also though paid for for that license then you would a Talks one, yes not as much as now when you look at the 3 upgrades you've had. but have you changed phones three times or not. as if not, then those three upgrades would also likely have been free with talks. thus in that instance you're actually out of pocket still by the difference of MS Gold verse Talks Premium.

even if you'd changed phones once, Talks was still cheaper, and only tips over that when you buy your second phone, and even then only by half the transfer fee.

Hi Neil. Not trying to throw a spanner in the works here but since I aquired MS4 I've had 3 updates for free now. The license policy has saved me 3 transfer fees due to the phone number licensing policy. Each screen reader company has their own business model and I've also benefitted from Talks upgrades as I've purchased 11 transfers up until now.

Kit,

and if they did that they up their initial purchase price, please think before you say such things. MS is not £150, its £80 more for the same thing.

now yes this is only £80, but you do not get any upgrades with that, you have to pay for those, and you do with Talks, and each time you buy a new phone and a transfers of Talks, you keep on getting the latest version.

I strongly feel that Nuance Talks should start with license base on mobile number as what MS have done.

Hi Chris,

I have no problem paying the £150 for the Talks licence itself. I fully
understand the level of resource required by the developers in producing and
marketing the product. It is good value in a very small marketplace. Of
course, that does not take away the fact the blind people have to pay this
extra cost for something everybody else does not need to. That is not a
fault of the development companies, who have to make a living. I guess that
could be viewed as a DLA issue.

Equally, when there is a significant upgrade to Talks I have no problem with
paying for an upgraded licence.

I do, however, find the £50 for a licence transfer an issue.

We have already paid for a licence to use Talks.
The transfer of the licence from one phone to another is required to avoid, or at least limit, piracy of their software, which is fully understandable .

Talknav do provide a simple and easy means of transferring the licence.

It is done without human intervention, in most cases, and its real on-going cost to Talknav and Nuance is minimal. The development of the Ap to do that
should not have been a complex task in these days of tools to assist in
"shopping" utilities.

I really think that the price of the transfer should bear some relationship to the cost of it. After all, we are only paying for the privilege of moving a licence we have already paid for to another phone, which we have also paid
for by one means or another.

I really do believe that in the fully automated world we live in that this
fee should be reduced.
Clearly, I do not know if the level of the fee is set by Nuance or the
dealership network.

Hello all.
Just had an e-mail privately from someone offering 50% off my next Talks
license. No thanks, I will get it from www.talknav.com. I don't mind paying the £50 but I do mind being involved in what could be a scam. So please do the same guys. Not knocking anybody here but you just never know. There are dodgy people in this world who will do anything with your money. So go for
the real deal please. Use www.talknav.com and you will get your license
within minutes, 24 hours a day 7 days a week 365 days a year.
Take care.
