I've been a Talks user for more than 3 years now.
I'm in the process of getting a new phone, and I'm still deciding whether I should take the Nokia N95, or the Nokia E90.
The disadvantage of the Nokia N95 (as i've heard) is it's poor battery life, as well as the fact that at present Talks is not working with the on board browser and inside the multimedia menu.
The disadvantage of the Nokia E90, is that Talks doesn't currently seem to be working for this model.
I believe that Mobile Speak is carrier independent to some extent.
Anyone who has experience with both screen readers, as well as with some of these new phones?
Could you tell me whether or not the Mobile Speak has built-in browser support for the Nokia E90, as well as how Mobile Speak would handle the built-in GPS function on both the phones in question?
Thanks much.
I don't have either of those phones, but I have a mobile phone which I bought ferom RNIB earlier this year. It has the talks software already on it and is designed percifically for blind people, which is why it has no screen. That is also the reason why it is so expensive, but when I was looking at getting my first mobile phone about a year agok, I found out that it would be more expensive to buy a nochia or something and have talks put on it, than it would to buy the actual phone with the thing alreadyon it from RNIB. Apparently, if you get a phone from vodaphone, you have to pay £100 and they will put talks on there for you ith no charges. I don't know what that would be in US dollars, if you need that, though.
