Nokia Smart Phone Recognizes Handwriting
San writes "Nokia on Tuesday announced it plans to start selling a new smart phone capable of handwriting recognition.
The 7710 model features a touch screen, pen input, a digital camera, an Internet browser, a radio, video playback and streaming and recording capabilities, the company said."
Gee, sounds like an iPod killer!
A house divided against itself cannot stand.

I remember watching someone try voice input on their TRS-80 (this is going waaayyy back)... "One... no... one... no! One! NO! ONE! AAARGGGH!" I know things have improved since then, but I'm not sure how accurate you could make it on such a small computing device. And the problem with voice input on a phone is that it's too easy to throw the phone against a wall after it misinterprets you for the hundredth time :-)
