Hi all..
Is there any way i can make my Diamond read out the caller's name whenever the phone rings.. as in the N series (Nokia) phones.. This feature is very handy, that i dont need to go to the table to see who's calling...

It already does that automatically. If you have the programmed the number in your contacts list, it will automatically search the name corresponding with the caller's nr.
Or, did you mean something else?

Speaker is not that loud on Jewel.
But I would definitely be interested in this.:)

I think 'Voice Command' does it!
Do a search ...

Dear Akito, i mean My Nokia N73 (All N series) reads the name in between playing the ringtone... That is ---Ringtone--Name---Ringtone---Name--, so i can here the name of person calling me from far off the room.. and that's an in built feature of N series not a third party software..

You could do this manually, I have a lot of peoples voices as my ringtones. I simply make them say something, and record it. Then I associate the recording with the corresp. person, so I always know who's calling, if it's someone from my contacts, even before I get my phone out of my pocket... Besides it's a lot of fun, some of my "ringtones" are hilarious ;)

Dear Flipside your idea is good, but not functional, i mean i have over 670 contacts, i can't keep manually making a ringtone for each!!! My Nokia N73 reads any new name added to the adress book..!!
anyway thanks for the idea, i can do that for my close contacts

Yeah, I'm a big fan of this feature on my N73 (although Bulgarian names often don't sound quite right :p). Especially when listening to music thru stereo headset or driving car with bluetooth handsfree (which is most of the time for me) and your phone is not that easy to reach in your pocket.

Can somebody confirm is there any 3rd party app that does that?

Generally that`s not an N73 feature but a Symbian feature ... so any Symbian phone of 60v3 at least can do that. It did my N80 and N6120 as well ... and I would be happy if Diamond has this feature.

Yes MS Voice Command does this:
Spoken caller ID. Windows Mobile smartphone users can take full advantage of incoming caller ID without ever looking down at the screen. Incoming call information is announced as calls are received. Users who think they may have missed a call can simply ask, "What calls did I miss?" and Voice Command will recite the time and phone number of missed calls.

Good luck :D
