What we need now is an answer from Nuance themselves or someone further down the chain of command whether Talks has a future on another platform before we part with our hard-erred Cash. Surely they owe us that. Sent from my Nokia E6

No not being erious there but you certainly have to consider your options. I have the E6 and I think it was you Malcolm that I mentioned to before about the slider going inside the side of the phone, the slider for locking and unlocking the keypad. I also find with the E6 that it does not always catch or latch on to every e-mail and I can at times be left with Talks repeating over and over again Browser. Yet there are other e-mails that it reads fine. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Malcolm Parfitt" <malc...@parfitt1.org.uk> To: "Talks Mailing List" <talks@talksusers.com> Sent: Monday, November 25, 2013 6:27 PM Subject: Re: [Talks] New Phone > > Can we really expect a new release of Talks when it would appear that > Symbian would appear to be dead in the water? > > So the answer would be to ask what's the future of accessible mobile > phones? > > As someone due to be eligible for an upgrade what should I do? > Sent from my Nokia E6 > > -----Original Message----- > From: "Eleanor Burke" > Sent: 25/11/2013, 17:49 > To: "Talks Mailing List" > Subject: [Talks] New Phone > > > Hi All, it is with regret that I have found myself purchasing a much more > functional phone last week that can do so much more than a phone running > Talks.
