Yes you can increase the Talks volume over the 10 that is already there. Go
into the Talks settings, Press Options, Arrow down to Audio Settings, Press
select, Select on Phone speaker. Now go down to the volume factor and change
it from 100% to maybe 125% or 150%. You also want to use a different version
of Eloquence to see if that helps some.

The loudspeaker and ear speaker button on-screen will be hit and miss
until you get used to it. a sighted person or even one like myself with a
little vision can directly hit the button. However, Denise and Allan may
have additional support for you there. As for volume, 10 is the maximum
and yes the volume is not great in loud environmental noise. However,
when on a call and if not using the external speaker have you tried
increasing the volume using the volume up key on the side? Finally you
want to know a little more about the keys on the bottom row. On the
extreme left on the bottom row is the function key which when hit once
will give you a number when in a text message or e-mail. If you want a
string of numbers as in a telephone number, then you can hit the key twice
write your number string and then hit twice again to return to text. Next
to the Function key and one in on the right is the Edit key. This key is
the Caps and caps lock key. Hit it once for an initial capital letter and
again hit twice if you want caps lock. To remove the caps lock hit it
twice. Next in we have the Talks key and as I said pressing it twice will
bring up the symbols keys for you, in other words the characters. Once
the symbols have been brought up you can press the soft key 2 on screen
and this will bring up emoticons. Unfortunately these are not recognised
by Talks so unless you want to use these forget about them as you cannot
use the Talks object viewer to label them either. A sighted person can
assist you with them however but if someone responds with a similar
emoticon, Talks will not recognise it. Now we move over to the right of
the space-bar. The first key is the @ sign useful when writing an e-mail
address and not having to go in to the symbols window to select the @
sign. Next we have the ? mark and finally there is a silent key. I do
not know what it does - sorry!!! The @ key when used in conjunction with
the Edit key will produce a forward / and the ? mark key when used with
the Edit key will give you an ! mark. Do remember that you can find out
all about keys by using the Talks Training Mode which is Talks key and
Zero. This is a toggle key.
Just an after-thought, if external speaker is important to you then you
might give some thought to a very small external speaker which you could
plug in to the headphone socket.

Subject: [Talks] E6 and talks related questions.
Hi All.
Firstly apologies Eleanor for not responding to the N86 questions. I was
out of the office and found that they had already been answered by the
time
I'd got back online.
I have 2 small questions.
1. Now I know you said that the Loud Speaker button is
above key 2 and I do get it successfully occasionally but it's very much
trial and error. Can you give me anymore guidance as how to do this more
successfully and is there a way of then returning to just using the
earpiece
(So To Speak".
2. Can anyone tell me what the keys that say Edit, CTRL,
Tilder,
Function and the key next to the spacebar on the righthand side that
says
nothing do.
3. One disadvantage I find with the E6 which I didn't have
with my N86 is the amount of volume I can get out of Talks. When I'm in
a
crowded place, I have to have the Talks volume on 8 or even 9 as the
speaker is on the back and there is only one. My N86 however was loud
enough for me on volume 5 or occasionally 6 - however it does have 2
speakers and they are on the side.
So, my question is, is there a way of increasing the talks volume
from
what it is set to. In other words, is Volume 10 the loudest or can this
be
increased anymore.
Thanks.
Maurice Press.
