Oh I do not think so Maurice though if you wre writing a word document
then
quick office have a spell dictionary I think.  I will look it out and if
you

do not have it can send off list as the list will not accept attachments.
What of a text though Maurice, just a few sentences and look at the lingo
of

the young people today when sending texts.

Maurice *smile*, I text with my left index finger while supporting the
phone

with my right hand.  I know I am fast but I thought that was acceptable,
when sighted people see me text they are amazed at my speed.  I ask:
'Can't

you text that fast?' and they say 'No'! It is a spacial awarenessthing.

Of course when I first saw a qwerty keyboard on a phone, I was all over
the
place, trying to text with both hands *smile* with the phone on my knee
but

how practical is that when I am walking around the park?! Then I trieda

few fingers on the left hand and asked people how they managed when
texting,

sighted people I mean.  They said they used their thumb so I decided to
give

it a go.  No way, culd not and eventually settled for the left index.  I
am
a Braille reader and I wonder if that helps with the sensativity in the
left

index finger, after all that would have been my dominant reading finger,
the

right hand as I was taught when learning Braille was more the guiding
hand.
In fact I make less mistakes with the qwerty than the numeric pad.
Remember

I am a proficient typist too though a poor speller, hence my mistakes at
times and when sending an e-mail I am not inclined to run a spell check
through.  Now I have a complete visual memory or mental memory of the
layout

of a qwerty also.  How did I do it then?  I had to set aside maybe 10

minutes a day for about a week and would go in to a blank message andoff

I
would go, in order to gain speed and confidence I just took off and did
not
concentrate on accuracy.  This then gave me rhythm and speed, then I
began
to slow down a little in favour of accuracy.  I would think it took me
about

3 days to get profecient.  After that sending messages, first a few
words,
then a sentence and eventually a few sentences.  With e-mail, I took a
while

but I answer 90% of my e-mails now on the go!

Eleanor,  I couldn't agree more.
That's why I still like my N86.

May I ask what might be considered a strange    question regarding
Texting
on the E6.
For some reason only known to myself,  I  text  with the  Index finger
of
my
lefthand whilst holding the  phone with my right.
Now when I was in my phone shop yesterday sorting out the Ovi screen
that

kept coming up when turning the phone on, I noted with muchfrustrationthat the person who was doing this for me was using the Qwertykeyboard

at
an amazing   rate.
So,  I wonder if  you could just let me know whether you text with
either
one finger or a combination of fingers.
I realise that at the end of the day this is a purely individual thing
but
am interested to try new techniques and as you say,  you are a  fast
texter
on the E6.

Maurice.

OK Maurice, glad you were getting on good with Podcasts.  You will have
read

on the list today that I only cracked that one last night thanks to
Denise
and Allan.  You will soon be an expert too now on the E6 and will be
able
to

start advising *smile*.  As for your effeciency with text messaging on
the
E6, like ytou make the analagy with a new car.  With the new car, it is
unfamiliar at first but then you begin to do everything automatically.
I
am

very fast at texting on the E6 but then I have had practice with theE71

and

E72 which are phones you have not used.  I actually wanted to move away
from

the numerica keypad and the predictive text as I can find that a little
irritating at times though exceptionally fast when all is going well.
The

camera is excellent on the E6 so maybe you should be making enquiriesof

those who sell the scanning software you mention to see if anyone has
tried
it out on the E6, or even better still you could always download a demo
of
each and let us know how things go.  You will have read where Stephen
Gigger, a user of the N95 is a great believer in older technology that
works

and I could not agree more with Stephen as I too am the proud user ofan

N95

Standard with excellent speakers, keys clearly defined etc!!!

Hi Eleanor.
Now there's a question.
For me,  the N86 is like a reliable car that never or hardly breaks
down
and
can do all the basic functions.

The E6 is to me like a suped up model that can do all the oldercars

can
do but with a lot of added extras and a lot faster.

Now let me put it in a different way if that's alright.

My Nokia N86 is a reliable phone and accept for having to replacethe

battery yesterday,  has never broken down in the couple of years I've
had
it.
It does all that it says on the tin:
Makes and receives Calls, Sends emails, navigates the web, takes
pictures
ETC.
Now sending texts for me are really fast on the N86  becausew of it's
usual
phone keypad.

However, I felt it was time to move onwards  and upwards to using
touchscreen technology as I like to keep up with what's around and
don't
like being left behind.
So, I tried various other phones,  some Nokia  and others not.
I tried the Nokia E7 but couldn't get on with it's shape or the slide
out
Qwerty keyboard.
I tried the Nokia N8 but found my ttexting was extremely eratic and
took
me
too long.
So,  when I found out about the E6, I was very excited.

For me the E6 is a combination of the N86 and Touch Screentechnology.

The phone as you know has a navigation key which is just like the N86
as
well as buttons to  send and  answer calls as well as other functions.
Also,  I find the web access on the E6 much better and sites such as
youtube
work really well  playing music and downloading podcasts.  This I just
can't
do on my N86.
So,  now I am in a bit of a quandary.
Do I go back to my  Old Faithful Reliable N86  and text fast but do
without
the latest   technology,  or,  do I bite the bullet and stick to my E6
which I really like but on which my texting is slower.

For the moment I'm going to stay with the E6.

Any help?

Maurice Press.

Hi Eleanor,
Thanks so much for  both this email and the text.
I do sometimes log on over the weekend but try to get away from my PC
and
work during the Weekend.

Thanks for all your help and assistance here.
I have done all you've suggested and it works.

I will get a new battery for my N86 but feel that if I nowconcentrate

on
my

E6 as my first phone my texting will become much quicker and thephone

does
have a lot of advantages over the N86.

Thanks again.

Well, my E6 is working Brilliantly.

My N86 actually broke down due to battery dying so I "had" to usethe

E6
as my number 1 phone.  I guess that's the best way.

Answer
I disagree with you Morris.  Purchase a new battery for your N8.

1. I have put some shortcuts on my home screen - Sound Recorder,
Camera, Messaging and  BBC website.

Now when I Run my finger over the screen all the icons say when Icome

to
them are "Icon" "Icon".
Is there a way of labelling them so they actually say what they are?

Answer

The object viewer. First when you decide you want to label icons
you'll
probably want to turn on the graphics identifier first so you know
what
icon

to look for in the object viewer. To turn on graphics do talks lonf
press
of

the number 4. Then as you touch the screen or arrow over icons ifthey

aren't labeled with a name it will read the icon number which is
composed
of

numbers and letters. There are 8 characters in an icon number.
Get to the object viewer by doing talks key followed by long pressing
the

center select button. It pops up with the screen that has bothlabeled

and
unlabeled icons on it. Arrow down through the list till you find the
icon
number of the one you want to label. press select on it. it brings up
another little screen with text if there's text there and give the
location

on the screen and says role which is where you'd select if you wantto

try
and change the role an object has. If not just keep arrowing down.
You'll
get to the icon again. press select and it takes you to the user
dictionary.

The icon number is in the existing field. Arrow down one and you get
to
the
replacement field. Type in what you want the icon to say. Then arrow
down
and exit if you want the label to be global or arrow to the right if
you
want it to be labeled in that program only.
I think you only want it to be in that programme  so you will want
home
screen and not global,.  Then touch soft key one and save it. When
you've
labeled what you want then touch the left soft key and it will return
you
to

the home screen.YOu turn off the graphics viewer by pressing talks
long
umber 4 again.

2. I would like to make either Key 2 or the "Email" part of the keyashortcut to messaging. I have looked at the Shortcut keys butcan't

work
out how to do this.  Can anyone explain for me please.

Answer
On the long keys on either side of the arrow keys there are two
buttons
top
and bottom next to the left and right arrow key.

On the left the top is menu. You can't change this one. It is awaste

since

soft key two takes you to the menu as well. under menu is thecalendar

one-touch key. you can have two  shortcuts. A short press and long
press.
to

the right of the right arrow there are two one-touch keys up anlower.

Upper

is the contact key under it is email or messaging key. These can each
have
two shortcuts assigned- short press and long press. You find them
under
tools settings, phone, one-touch keys.

Settings 9 of 12.
Phone 3 of 7
one touch keys which is 9 of 11.
Now you are put in a list where there are just 3 items, namely,
calandar
key, contacts key and messaging key.
Select messaging key as that is the one you asked about.
You now have another screen. The first option is short press
messaging.
If
you want to alter this and have something else there in the short
press
instead of messaging then select on this.  You will now be in a long
list
and you can choose from this.  On my phone I have then 60 options to
choose
from.  It is possible to arrow down through all these 60 options.
Make your selection and exit by pressing soft key 2 on the screen,
bottom
right *smile*.  Re[eat this for the long press of the messaging key.

You can add other shortcuts to the home screen by editing the home
screen
under the wigit catelogue.

3. When  writing a  text, how can I get the symbols up especially
apostrophe and Quotes.

Answer
A single quote is the Function Key, bottom right followed by the
letter
l.
Talks does not say single quote but if you write it and backspace
Talks
will

say quote.
To bring up a list of punctuation and symbols you have to press the
Cha
key.

This key is obtained by pressing the Talks key twice.  In Talks
Training
Mode when you first press this key directly to the left of the
spacebar
Talks announces Talks and then if you press it again in Training Mode
Talks
says Cha.  Now out of training Mode, when you hit this key twice, the
2nd
time you hit it, it will not say Ch but it will bring up the symbols.
Arrow

right across the top row and then arrow down to the next row etc.
When
you
come across the symbol you want then select it using the select key.
If
you

press soft key 2 on the screen you then get a list of emoticons but
Talks

does not recognise these so do not bother with them but do not belike

me
and press soft key 2 on the screen to exit the characters screen as
this
is
not the way out.  The only Exit I have found is on selecting the
character
using the select that lies in the centre of all the arrow keys.  If I
have

made a mistake or do not want a particular key, I still select andget

back

out and then use the backspace to remove it. Someone else can chipin

on
this one.

:4. Is it p possible without sight to move items up the menu.

Answer
I do not think so, Actually I have some useful vision and have tried
movjing

them but with no success.  I had an N97 Mini and this was possible
before.
Think you had the N97 for a short time and ditto.  Again if someone
can
chip

in here that would be great.

Eleanor
