[Reader-users] Still Trying To Decide On The Upgrade

[Nicki Keck]

Well, that for me means if I were to get the upgrade, which I can't afford
right now, I would not be using it as a phone, as I do use mobileSpeak with
a smartPhone right now, and it would cost me less to transfer my license
than to buy a completely new program, i.e., talks, and if I can't web surf,
well that is a big minus for me because I can do that now on my SmartPhone
with MSS with no problems, so I am glad this was mentioned.


Have a blessed day,
 
Nicki

Hello Jonathan and others,

This tidbit caught my ear:
?>Note that web surfing is only possible with talks at this
time, not with Mobile Speak.

That's a pretty big note that I hadn't caught in reviwing things previously.
I'm right on the cusp of purchasing my reader and should do that this week.
As such I'm concerned that I hadn't caught that tidbit.  I'm definitely
putting a reader on it and had elected Mobile speak but now have some
reservations.

I did join your list moments ago for blind symbian users but thought this
list an appropriate one to understand what other key difference may exist
between talks or Mobile Speak for this particular phone/product?

Is the web access close?

Are either thinking about adding the coding to allow reading of the new NLS
formats which would truly make this device an all in one for the blind user?

Thanks for any and all opinions or information - particularly on the screen
reader variances and shortcomings on this phone/product.
