Hi.
With the talks commands, it is mostly the same. The button that has a
little physical dot on it is the number 5, also the letter g fyi. I
don't know if the E65 is a qwerty phone, if it isn't you probably need
to be told that the fn key which if I remember rightly for the E5 is the
second key from the left on the bottom row and if not that it is the
left most key will turn those keys into numbers, or if were already
numbers generally turn them back into alphabet characters.
The button with the dot on it is the number 5, the one above is 2, below
is 8, you get the point. star I believe is to the right of 3 and pound
is to the right of 6, may have those two backwards sorry and 0 is to the
right of 9. With talks mode, don't worry about hitting fn to turn those
buttons into numbers, talks does that automatically. Just hit what ever
your talks key is and the number 9, or rather the letter n if my brain
is working correctly to hear the time, or also talks and the send key
who's location I already mentioned. Talks works reliably with that
functionality on the e5 unlike some minor issues that it may have with
certain other models. One thing that you may notice with the E5 is that
it contains more bloatware than previous phones. It saw the attempt to
get on board more social networks and the like that pretty much aren't
accessible and you may be uninstalling some of that given that being the
case in order to reclaim some space and ram.
This phone does have a lot of ram though and at the time of it's release
became at least for a brief time famous for it's capability to run more
processes simultaneously without running out of cpu time than almost any
other phone at the time. It's major competition at the time was the much
older Nokia N82 which has a very slow but dual core processor. I believe
the number was that the tests ran on it managed to get somewhere in the
neighborhood of 77 processes running on it simultaneously. If you're not
the geeky type that means the phone is actually a pretty good performer
at least for running Symbian. If you get lots of out of memory errors
you can expect to see much fewer of those.

hi again elanor.
i have another question regarding this phone.
i have recieved the phone but won't be actually installing talks on to
it until christmas day, so my questions are really off the top of my
head at the moment.
i have felt around the phone and have someone sighted roughly tell me
the layout of the buttons.
my question is this:
i understand the number buttons run very similar to an old style
phone, but when i would press the talks key and the number 9 on my old
nokia e65 here it would announce the time and date - is this the same
on the nokia e5?
could you give me some examples of talks key plus another button to
say read the battery life etc.
all your help is appreciated.

Thanks Stephen Gigger, I read most of it through but5 did not get to
Steve's
question. The Talks Key defaults to the one to the left of the
spacebar but
there is within Talks the facility to change the Talks key.

Hi and thanks very much for your in depth explanation of this phone.
I have a question that i dont think has been answered as yet. Where
abouts on the handset is the talks key? I am using an e65 at the
moment and the talks key is situated just above the volume buttons on
the right hand side of the handset. Regards. Stephen faill

Hi.
I have an E5 here. Mine has been worn out and now reboots
spontaneously any old time it feels like it. Getting it to run for
10 minutes at a time is something to brag about. It was dropped in
a mud hole at one point, I think that may have an affect on it.
It's a nice phone, got the podcatcher built in, the battery life
isn't too bad. Mine got around 3 days, that's ok for me my e72
doesn't really get any better with a much larger battery. You will
probably like the E5 well enough. The speaker gets pretty darn loud
but has this auto gain stuff where it makes sounds that weren't so
loud in what ever sound you are playing become very loud like the
breaths of someone on a podcast become as loud as their speech when
you have the volume turned all the way up, but turn it down a
couple of clicks and it starts working properly. It isn't
distortion, it seems to be some kind of auto gain. My e72 has more
low end frequency in the speaker than the E5, but the E5 is
louder than the E72. The e5's microphone is ok, it seems to be
fairly good for recordings as phones go. The e5 has a micro sd card
slot located in the battery compartment so you have to remove the
battery to get to it. I have had a 32gb card in there on mine. The
sim card is also located under the battery.
Everything I did with it seemed to work ok, internet radio, fm
radio, music player, web browser, email, podcasting... I had talks
and Mobile Speak both installed on it used Mobile Speak in demo.
The back on it is stainless steel like the E72 but smooth no ridges
except for a line of writing near the bottom edge of the cutout for
the camera lense.
It does have a 3.5mm headphone jack for regular headphones and I
used it a lot on mine with no issues.
One big annoyance with it is that the power button is the end key.
Hold down the end key to power on, hold down again to get the menu
of options to switch to other modes like silent or meeting or power
it off, or activate power saving, or disconnect sd card etc etc.
There are two buttons one on each side of the phone that you press
in on at the same time to get it to release the battery cover.
The phone's vibrator is the most vicious of any phone I have ever
seen. You can hear the motor even if it doesn't vibrate on the
table from feet away. It is a lighter weight phone than the E72 and
made more cheaply. It does have a faster processor, if not very
much so, to make up for some of it's body being made of plastic
where Nokia's other phones that were made similar to it used more
metals. The E5 is thicker than the E71 or E72, but not so much so.
It is also a bit wider which results in slightly larger buttons on
the keyboard.
It has only one configurable button, and that's the text messaging
key above the end key, it's a long horrizontal bar that extends
from the right arrow key to the right edge of the phone and above
which is key2 and below which is the end key. The same setup is on
the left side but the horrizontal bar on that side is the menu key
and naturally below it is send and above is key 1. There are a long
rocker bar on the right side for volume and that about does it

hi elanor.
thankyou for your response in this matter.
can you tell me what the battery life is like with this model?
i have no intention to use the e mail or social networking
functions, so they will be switched off, which i presume will help
battery life.
i have yet to use a qwerty keyboard - how is it to use on this
model compared to a regular keypad?
can you also tell me how sound quality is and if there is a 3.5mm
socket for headphones?
sorry for bombarding you with all these simple questions, but you
are the best person to ask as you have one.
kind regards.

with current release of Talks, released last week, emoticans can
now be read which is good for sending in texts.
