the answer is yes, you can dial any numbers that not saved in the contacts book. you dont have to slide out the phyzical qwerty to dial a number, just enable the virtual keypad to dial any phone numbers. > a similar question, if I am on a call, and am faced by one of those menu > driven phone systems, what do I do, am I again going to > have to open the keyboard etc, or can I input the number I want to select > from the menu with the touch screen? you must install the latest talks 521 if you want to dial any number during a call. because talks 521 will provide speech while on a active call. my personal opinion is you should plugin a wired headset or a bluetooth headset if you want to perform any input during a call. the reason is, these fully touch screen phones has a sensor that will turn off the touch screen when you put the phone near to you face. so it will make it difficult to dial any number during a call. hope you get what i mean. > My last question relates to inputting of pin codes. at the moment, I have a > pin code on my sim card for security, can I input this > code from the touch screen? or does anything like that have to be done from > the keyboard? you can dial the pin code using the virtual keypad and the qwerty keyboard too. but for me the easy way is to press the pin using the virtual keypad. hth. -- Allan (WKF) _______________________________________________ Talks mailing list Talks@talksusers.com http://lists.talksusers.com/mailman/listinfo/talks Hosting of this list provided courtesy of: eHosting Limited: http://www.ehosting.com/ and Talknav Inc. http://www.talknav.net/
