keith i would outright buy the n75 rather then use the singular version
with 
the unbranded one you can use any blue tooth not true with the singular 
version if i remember correctly also with the unbranded one you get a
longer 
battery life it's an all around better deal.

>> Hi Stephen,

>> I appreciate all the advice, thanks.

>> This is a hard question to answer and their is no correct answer.

>> and sold by AT&T.
>>
>> I would suggest that you buy the phone out side of AT&T and just 
>> moving your existing Sim card from the 6620 to the new phone and 
>> buying a Talks license transfer from a Talks dealer. This would give 
>> you. 1. A unlocked phone.
>> 2. A unbranded phone that works better.
>> 3. Doesn't have any of the AT&T stuff on it as far as shareware or
>> floatware or any other stuff to
>> slow down the phone.
>> 4. Getting the phone as Nokia atended it to be put out.
>>
>> Also by doing it this way; You will not be required to sign a new 
>> contract and can switch cell providers when ever you like and use the

>> new phone on that network.
>>
>> This will also give you the ability to choose from a good 20 plus 
>> Symbian Nokia phones that support the 850 and 1900 MHZ bands that 
>> AT&T

>> uses.
>>
>> Remember; All Symbian series 60 3rd Edition phones will work with 
>> either Talks or MobileSpeak. And both screen readers will give you a 
>> 30 day trial license on request. That away you can trial both screen 
>> readers and see what one gives you the needed information you require

>> and what functions you use.
>>
>> Their is no one best screen reader for most phones. It comes down to 
>> how you use it and what you want to do with the screen reader.
