Dan, What the article is trying to say is that this particular talx software is not the talx software that you can get from other places. It was especially developped in partnership with cingular. It's also saying that this particular talx will work only with this particular nokia phone.

It says the new application to make cell phones accessible is talks. In my research into cell phones, talks has been around for quite a while. Also, the article says that only one phone in the US will work with talks, the Nokia 6620. This is also incorrect. Talks works on a number of Nokia series 60 phones, several of which are available in the US, including the 3650 and 3660 which are both cheaper than the 6620. Later. -- Blue skies.
