Oh! Just as a additional note! There may not be any new Symbian phones created! Doesn't mean Symbian isn't being updated. However the updates would only be for the latest phones like the 700, 701, 808, E6, E7, etc... This will continue going on through about 2016 or so.

So based on that! You probably can continue expecting Talks to improve along with the other screen reader as well. However this is my own thoughts based on the above.

At this time! Talks will not be produced for Windows phones. This is do to the fact that Microsoft didn't include any access for programmers to build on to be able to make a screen reader for that platform. So you will not see Talks or the other screen reader on Windwos.

Hi all,

Though this mail is not directly related to Talks, message in it has certainly something to think upon. With the fact that no more Symbian phones are going to be developed, I was wondering if anyone here has any info about Talks supporting Windows phones or any such sort of thing. Though undoubtedlyAndroid is becoming the second bet of VI with the release of JB, it still lacks the quality with which Talks produces the speach output and even iPhone doesn't have that clearity and that's why Talks still survives! and I still love my C5!

With the release of its Q4 financial results, Nokia has officially confirmed that the Nokia 808 PureView was their last smartphone to be powered by the Symbian OS. Stated in the financial report, Nokia confirms that the company will no longer be developing any phones based on the Symbian operating system. 'During our transition to Windows Phone through 2012, we continued to ship devices based on Symbian. The Nokia 808 PureView, a device which showcases our imaging capabilities and which came to market in mid-2012, was the last Symbian device from Nokia.' Nokia earnings release today shows that the company managed to sell a total of 2.2 million Symbian phones during the last quarter, half the number of Lumia Windows-Phone units shifted in the same period, which is presumably due to high demand for the camera powerhouse 808 PureView.
