Conjecture: Voice recognition on a PDA could work if you had a separate voice server over a wireless connection. So you have voice sent over a regular phone connection to you home pc (with modem) that does the recognition, it then spits back text (over another connnection?) to your PDA.
Some might say that this would make VR to slow. I don't see why this would be noticibly slower than doing VR in person. After all, when we talk on the phone the person on the other end hears us almost instananeously.
On a side note: my brother is doctor who uses VR to do his dictations. It is much cheaper than paying a transcription service. He also does not need to review the transcriptions afterwards for accuracy, because he essentially reviews it as he speaks it.

My computer is already cooled by sound waves. If you don't believe me, come on over and have a listen.
How can this be a fair review if the reviewer slept through parts of the movie? This warrants front page of slashdot?
