They are two competing products that provide a TTS output capibility for the telephone features of a Symbian wireless telephone, usually the Nokia 3650 in the U.S. Obviously, even so so functionality can be a critical functionality enhancement. I have not used TALX, though I've seen it demonstrated on a Nokia 9210 (or some such PDA Nokia). I do have Mobile Accessibility on an AT&T serviced Nokia 3650. It takes forever to boot--with no early indication that it's even booting. It crashes a lot sometimes so hard that I need to remove the battery to get a reset. It's a stand-alone application on top of the Symbian on the phone. In other words, it does not enable the apps on the Nokia, but installs a separate app. The 3650's dial pad is stupid fro a blind person's perspective. It's a horseshoe shaped reminiscence of old dial pads. Not easy to use.
