  16. Re:i hope that voice recognition never really flie on Using PDAs for Dictation? · · Score: 1

    "Cellphones are bad enough, imagine if everyone was talking to their computers. The noise would be terrible."

    I imagine keyboardless systems that might work by either sign language or whisper systems that translate the positions of the anatomy of your face and voicebox to text.

    Of course, it will turn out that whispering is bad for your voice.

  17. Re:It's not just the processor... on Using PDAs for Dictation? · · Score: 5, Interesting

    I remember seeing a ViaVoice demo a couple of years ago. The guy doing the demo said they use these headmikes that are actually 2 microphones. One mike faces the mouth, the other faces away. The circuitry then filters out any environmental noise from your voice. Don't know how much they cost though.(I'm sure I could look it up)

    So, this could turn out to be some sort of Columbine story of misfit geeks with psychic powers instead of guns.
