Yes go to the blindsea.com website and to third party software under mobile 
phones and you will find the accessable PC Suite and the latest inaccessable 
one.

  Hi Listers,

   

  I have an E7. How can we sync and backup when Ovi Suite is now inaccessible, 
or can we use an earlier version of PC Suite? I dropped a note to Nokia but 
have received no reply.

   

  Cheers,

   

  Mike

  Well I would have thought they should be buying the appropriate Blackberry 
and software from Humanware for blind people.  In the meantime I have different 
phones, all that support e-mail and Internet.  You mention a Nokia C5 and that 
is OK but I would not go for that, even though I own one myself.  It is one of 
the cheaper models on the market with very small screen and has no wi-fi 
capability so Internet access and e-mail will be via contract service provider 
only.  There are the Nokia E7, E6 and E5, all of which you might like to 
consider running Talks Premium.  Talks Premium costs £150 (I think) for IMEI 
based and if you purchase Talks that is SIM based it is more expensive.  There 
are many people on this list, I hink who use touch screen iPhone so that is 
another option.  Finally of the 3 Nokia phones I mentioned the E5 is not touch 
screen while the E6 and E7 are both touch screen and controlled by qwerty 
keypad.  The E5 also has a qwerty keypad.

    Hi All

    Looking for a bit of help for a colleague at work she was due to be issued 
with a blackberry for receiving emails and so on while away from the office. 
But for obvious reasons they are totally inaccessible and the software from 
America never seems to have arrived here in the UK. So we are looking for some 
help with a decent talks compatible phone that would allow email to be sent and 
received. Someone had mentioned about a Nokia C5.

     

    On the other side of things if the employer is offering blackberry's to 
sighted staff am I correct in thinking they should be buying the appropriate 
phone and talks for blind employee.

    Thanks

    Sam
