>> Hi list!
>>
>> We wanted to let you know that the Nuance web site has been updated with

>> Talks. This version is 3.51.1. This version is a maintenance release for 
>> 3.50.4. This version can be
>> installed on any 3rd Edition phones already running Talks or on a 3rd 
>> Edition phone that does not
>> have Talks on it already.

>> www.nuance.com/talks/downloads.asp
>>
>> This version adds support for the following phones.
>> . Nokia 6121 Classic [already compatible with 3.20, but not officially 
>> listed]
>> . Nokia E51
>> . Nokia E90 [new screen format is now fully supported], with limited 
>> browser support for the moment
>> . Nokia N81 and N81 8GB
>> . Nokia N82
>> . Nokia N95 with new firmware version 20.x
>> . Nokia N95 8GB Excluding that handset with 15.X of the firmware. Firmware 
>> below 15.X should be OK.
>>
>> If you do not have Talks; Hear are some of the things this version will 
>> do.
>> 1. Support for New Nokia Web Browser [3rd Ed. only]
>> TALKS now supports the new Nokia web browser on handsets with S60 3rd 
>> Edition. Similar to PC screen
>> readers, it allows browsing web pages as a virtual
>> buffer. Users can read them line by line, and quick keys allow to find 
>> certain web elements easily,
>> or to search for any text on the page.
>> With this exciting improvement, using a mobile phone to browse the web has 
>> become a real alternative
>> to using a PC, especially on pages that are not too
>> complex, or pages that offer content optimized for mobile phones or PDAs. 
>> And it can be done at home
>> or while on the go.
>> Important Note: TALKS does not yet offer full support for the browser on 
>> the Nokia E90, N82, N81*,
>> E51. In particular, it is not possible to enter text into edit fields.
>> For more information on the quick keys for the web browser; Please take a 
>> look at chapter 5 of the
>> Talks manual.
>> 2. New TTS: Vocalizer for Mobile [3rd Ed. only]
>> TALKS can from now on be used with a selection of new voices using a 
>> completely new TTS technology,
>> called Nuance Vocalizer for Mobile. We have started
>> with offering some female Vocalizer for Mobile voices, and will continue 
>> to add other voices as they
>> become available. Vocalizer for Mobile voices have
>> a low memory footprint, similar to ETI Eloquence, while at the same time 
>> utilizing the more human
>> sounding voices like RealSpeak Mobile. All users who
>> have licensed RealSpeak Mobile voices can now also install and use 
>> Vocalizer for Mobile voices free
>> of charge
>> 3. Automatic Use of Nokia TTS during a Call [3rd Ed. only]
>> Currently, it is not possible to use any TTS during a call, except for the 
>> Nokia TTS, on phones
>> using S60 3rd Edition. Until we solve this problem in the
>> next major release of TALKS&ZOOMS, we have implemented a work-around by 
>> automatically switching to
>> the Nokia TTS while on a voice call. This allow to use the
>> menus, enter text, etc. while on a call, after TALKS has been unmuted. 
>> Please note that this does
>> not work for VoIP calls with the built-in SIP client.
>> 4. Subscribing to SMS Newsletter from TALKS
>> TALKS&ZOOMS users can now subscribe to our free SMS News service. They 
>> will be prompted about a
>> subscription automatically, and they can also subscribe
>> or unsubscribe from within the TALKS&ZOOMS settings application. 
>> Alternatively, users can send a
>> text message with the word "Subscribe" or "Unsubscribe"
>> to the following number:
>> +44-7781-482160.
>> Please note that this feature depends on the SIM card in the user's phone, 
>> and does not work with
>> some service providers and in some countries.
>> 5. Other Changes
>> . Improved support for browser-like screens in Wayfinder (e.g. 
>> registration) - they are now spoken
>> in a similar way as the old Nokia WAP browser.
>> . TALKS is now included in a backup using the memory card application on 
>> S60 3rd Edition, and can be
>> restored together with the phone memory. Settings,
>> serial number and add-on TTS engines are not yet preserved.
>> . Added back special support for Latin American Spanish, Latin American 
>> Portuguese and Canadian
>> French to 3rd Edition version (so phones in these languages
>> no longer show the English translation of TALKS)
>> . Reading of long text is now stopped on every keypress, not just on [long 
>> Talks]
>> . Fixed crashes in some S60 3rd Edition applications with TALKS (e.g. 
>> Y-Browser, F-Secure, some
>> screens of Nokia Catalogs)
>> . Fixed crash when opening Talks Settings while keyboard is locked
>> . Fixed problems in some applications (e.g. Notes) with reading cursor 
>> going back to the top when
>> application loses focus
>> . Renamed "Guillemot" character to "Double Angle Bracket" (English)
