Introduction We proudly announce the release of the Nuance Accessibility Suite - Nuance TALKS and Nuance ZOOMS - Version 4.10 for Series 60 3rd Edition for August 19th, 2009. This version also includes a minor update (1.01) of Nuance Daisy2Go, our DAISY audio+text book player. The player can be used on any phone that has a license which is valid for TALKS&ZOOMS or TALKS Premium Edition 4.10. Version 4.10 is a free upgrade for all Premium Edition licenses generated after November 13th, 2007. 2. The new handsets 2.1. Changes to the list of supported phone models The following handsets are newly supported (please see section 4 "Known Issues" about some limitations): a. Nokia E63 b. Nokia E71x c. Nokia E75 [see "Known Issues" for important restrictions] d. Nokia N86 [see "Known Issues" for important restrictions] Note that the Nokia E52 and 6720 classic is not yet supported by this version due to a known issue that causes the phone to crash when using Eloquence during a call. As with 4.00, 1st Edition handsets are no longer supported (Nokia 36xx, Nokia 7650, N-Gage, N-Gage QD, Siemens SX1). 3. What's New?

Daisy2Go: Fixed problem with Auto Resume when newly added book had not yet been played 4. Known Issues on specific handsets · Unlike earlier releases of TALKS, this version will only let you select the Nokia TTS while in "10-minute demo" mode (i.e. before any serial number has been entered). As soon as you have entered a demo or full version license key, all TTS engines can be chosen as usual. · Not all icons are labelled on newer phones, so some status indicators, like 3G or GPRS, may not be read in all situations. · 3rd Edition (FP1 and FP2): "Search" application is not supported. · Nokia E66/E71: The new calendar application is not yet supported. · 3rd Edition FP2: Some status indicators (e.g. Bluetooth) cannot be read while the phone keyboard is locked. · 3rd Edition FP2: Built-in Help screens are not read because they use the web browser in a way that is not yet supported by TALKS. · 3rd Edition FP2: You will notice a slow response of voice recognition "beep" after holding [Key 2] when TALKS is not muted · E75: When using ZOOMS, moving around the screen by holding down the cursor keys is currently not possible. The magnified portion of the screen always follows the current focus position. · N96: "Photos" application (and "Photos" submenu of "Gallery") is not supported. · N96: Daisy2Go does not support firmware versions prior to 20.x of this phone. This is expected to be fixed by a future firmware update. · Nokia 6121, 6124: Entering text into text fields when using the web browser is not possible with this release. This will be fixed with the next update. · Nokia N86, Nokia E75: The e-mail application is not accessible with TALKS. · Nokia N86: Entering text into form fields when using the web browser is not possible with this release. In particular, combo boxes may stop navigation in the page from working when they receive the focus. 5. FAQ Q: Your software does not install on my E-Series handset or branded device, and reports a Certificate Error! Why? A: While TALKS&ZOOMS for S60 3rd Edition itself is certified, and thus can be installed on any supported S60 3rd Edition handset, the installers for the TTS engines (Eloquence or RealSpeak Mobile) are not signed. E-Series handsets and some branded devices do only accept the installation of signed software, unless you turn of the corresponding option inside the Application Manager: · Open the phone menu. · Open the App. Manager inside the Tools folder · Press "Options", then select "Settings". · Set "Software Installation" from "Signed only" to "All". · Press "Back" to close the Settings dialogue, then "Exit" to close the App. Manager. · Now, you can install the TTS engine. Another reason could be that the date on your phone is not set correctly - as 3rd Edition software is digitally signed, SIS files can only be installed if the phone is set to a valid date. Q: Can I install the new release of TALKS&ZOOMS, while a previous release is active? A: Yes, if the new version is installed to the same memory location as the previous release. If you would like to change the memory location, you have to remove the previous release first! Q: Why do I get an "Upgrade error" when installing the S60 3rd Edition version? A: The most likely reasons are that you have used a beta release, or already have the Nokia TTS driver available that was installed as a separate file with version 3.10. Please remove any beta version, as well as the Nokia TTS driver or the Nuance Speech2Go Reader application, before upgrading to TALKS 4.10.
