>>
>> Mobile Speak 4.5 for Symbian is Now Available
>>
>>
>>
>>
>>
>> Touch Screen, Web Browser, Calendar, TweetS60, Nokia C5, C6, E5 &
>> E73 Mode, and More!
>>
>>
>>
>>
>> Terrassa (Barcelona), Spain, July 1st, 2010
>>
>>
>>
>> Mobile Speak 4.5, a free update for all users of Mobile Speak 4.0,
>> is now available! Since the release of Mobile Speak 4.1, Code
>> Factory's Symbian development team has focused its efforts on two
>> main areas: Touch Screen and Web Browser support.
>>
>>
>> Using a Touch Screen Becomes as Easy as Using a Phone with Physical Keys
>>
>>
>>
>> Mobile Speak 4.5 includes two new touch screen interaction modes,
>> based on the concept of a standard joystick and a standard numeric
>> keypad. All of the physical keys used to control the screen reader
>> and phone in non touch screen devices have now been converted by
>> Mobile Speak into very intuitive virtual touch keys. It is therefore
>> easier and faster to enter text, dial a number or navigate through
>> the menus of your touch screen device
>>
>> The two new touch screen input methods are named Keypad mode and
>> Joystick mode. The Keypad mode is the default touch mode. You can
>> switch to the Joystick mode with command + volume up key, and then
>> use command + volume down key to go back to the Keypad mode.
>>
>> In Keypad mode, the touch screen is divided into 12 virtual keys,
>> arranged just like a phone keypad (1, 2, and 3 at the top; 4, 5, and
>> 6 in the second row; 7, 8, and 9 in the third; and the star, 0, and
>> hash keys in the bottom row). By accessing the Keypad mode, you can
>> type numbers and letters just as with a physical keypad, including
>> using predictive text to compose text messages and email. This input
>> method allows you to enter text faster than either a virtual
>> keyboard or a review cursor with an onscreen keyboard.
>>
>> In addition, you can combine these virtual numeric keys with the
>> command key to perform command shortcuts, just as in previous
>> (non-touch) versions of Mobile Speak. For example, to mute Mobile
>> Speak, press the command key followed by the virtual 0 key at the
>> bottom center of the screen. Long-time users of Mobile Speak will
>> find this method of accessing commands familiar, and new users will
>> also find it a convenient alternative to the standard touch gestures.
>>
>> To access the left and right softkeys, delete characters, or press
>> enter, you can use a gesture called a "slide back" in one of four
>> directions. For example, to access the left softkey, you can perform
>> a "slide left and back" by sliding your finger right-to-left and
>> then left-to-right without releasing your finger or pausing between
>> the two motions. This gesture may take a few tries to be able to
>> perform it smoothly, but once you familiarize yourself with it, it
>> provides a quick and easy gesture to access common functions.
>>
>> Tip: To quickly become familiar with the virtual touch keys,
>> gestures and commands in Keypad mode, use the Keyboard Help mode.
>> This is activated and deactivated by pressing the Command key + long
>> press on the virtual key 5.
>>
>> Besides this Keypad mode, Mobile Speak 4.5 also features a Joystick
>> mode in which the touch screen is divided into 9 virtual keys,
>> arranged in a 3 x 3 grid. This touch input mode is intended for
>> users who prefer to interact with the phone using taps rather than
>> by slide gestures. The central key is joystick Enter, while the 4
>> keys directly above, below, left and right of the joystick
>> correspond to the joystick up, down, left and right keys. The bottom
>> left key is the left softkey, and the bottom right key is the right
>> softkey, and the upper right key is the delete key (upper left is
>> unassigned). Therefore if you are scrolling a list, you only have to
>> make taps on the top center or bottom center of your touch screen to
>> scroll up and down the list.
>>
>>
>> Improved Web Browsing Experience
>>
>>
>>
>> Based on the extensive feedback of Mobile Speak's users and beta
>> testers, many bugs have been fixed in order to provide a much more
>> advanced web browsing experience. These include:
>> * Fixed problem that prevented some pages from being accessible
>> on certain devices.
>> * Fixed problem where reading whole screen by pressing 9 would
>> sometimes finish before the end of page is reached.
>> * Fixed problem on many newer devices where the amount of
>> kilobytes downloaded and remaining was not being spoken when
>> pressing joystick up (or down) while a page is loading.
>> * Fixed problem when entering text in Text Area field on some
>> web pages. Pressing joystick enter will now open the Text Area so
>> that text can be entered.
>> * Fixed problem where Combo boxes were not always selectable.
>> Pressing joystick enter will now open Combo boxes so that the
>> selection can be modified.
>> * Fixed problem on some newer phones which could cause a combo
>> box to open unintentionally when passing over the element with joystick moves.
>> * Fixed problem where a Combo box's contents were not
>> immediately refreshed with the new data after changing the combo
>> box selection.
>> * Fixed problem where some in-page links were not being jumped
>> to correctly.
>> * Fixed problem where the text of some elements was not being
>> spoken (affected some images, links or headers).
>> * Fixed various problems when moving up with joystick up, such
>> as: End of lists/tables was not spoken; all elements of combo box
>> were spoken; not symmetric to moving down with joystick down.
>> * Fixed problem when entering web address with T9 predictive
>> text active: it is no longer repeating full address each item a new
>> character is entered if the address starts with "http".
>> * Editor state is now spoken correctly (e.g. T9, alpha, number).
>> * After entering a password, its value is now displayed as
>> "****" when passing over the element with joystick moves, to improve privacy.
>>
>>
>>
>> More New Features
>>
>>
>>
>> * Support for the Nokia calendar application in several new
>> devices where it was not yet supported (e.g. E52, E72, E75, 6730,
>> C5) when in Month, Agenda or To-do views.
>> * Support for <http://www.tweets60.com/>TweetS60, the popular
>> 3rd party Twitter client.
>> * Support for the
>> <http://www.freedomscientific.com/products/fs/focus-40-blue-product-page.asp>Focus
>> 40 Blue Braille portable device from Freedom Scientific. Listen to
>> Jonathan Mosen's demo at
>> <http://www.codefactory.es/descargas/Audio/focus_40_blue.mp3>http://www.codefactory.es/descargas/Audio/focus_40_blue.mp3
>>
>> * Support for new phones: Nokia C5, Nokia C6, Nokia E5 and Nokia
>> E73 Mode (for T-Mobile USA).
>> * Changed T9 predictive text functionality so that, when
>> entering text in predictive mode and with Keyboard Echo set to
>> Characters, the whole word it spoken (just like it currently is
>> when Keyboard Echo is set to Characters and Words). Also speaking
>> the whole word when typing a space in predictive mode with keyboard
>> echo set to "Characters".
>> * Added feature to the user dictionary to allow the copying of
>> dictionaries between different voices.
>> * Added "Include in Toggle Profile command" setting in General
>> Tab. When set to Off, the Mobile Speak Profile is not included when
>> toggling profile with Command + Clear. Default is On for all profiles.
>> * Touch devices: Added new commands: Command + volume up and
>> Command + volume down. These allow you to easily cycle through
>> Mobile Speak's touchmodes : Keypad, Joystick, Quadrant, Review
>> Cursor and Stylus mode.
>> * Touch: Added Configuration option in General tab called "Touch
>> mode on startup" which allows you to select the Mobile Speak touch
>> mode that will be first active when Mobile Speak is launched.
>> * Activation: issues with SMS and Internet activation that
>> existed with some operators (e.g. AT&T) have now been resolved.
>>
