[nabs-l] verizon phone question

[Dave Wright]

Evening all,

Currently, Talks is not supported on the HTC Ozone. The only phone 
officially supported is the Motorola Q from Verizon. Verizon, at this time, 
is not technically supposed to be offering customers the ability to purchase 
any other device than the Motorola Q as per their contract with Nuance. 
MobileSpeak although not listed as supporting the Ozone as of yet, works 
great on this device with only a few bugs. Hope this helps.
