Between Dragon NaturallySpeaking and Google, these are the best services right now for voice recognition. Both services utilize cloud computing with the smartphones. Both capture the information, the information is sent to a processing center, recognition is ran on information that’s presented and then sent back to the operator’s smartphone.

TalktoMe Keyboard [TTM Keyboard] is, and was, my favorite application for my Motorola Droid. It can capture 3 to 10 seconds of voice recognition data to be sent off for remote processing; pasting that information into any application inside the Motorola Droid. This is a huge improvement over the capabilities of Dragon NaturallySpeaking and the iPhone.

TalkToMe keyboard has changed their name to Uber Keyboard, and now they’re stressing the importance of speaking slowly and clearly in the aspects of voice recognition.

I’ve already posted that I think ISP’ are going to change to to ‘media company’, but the more interesting thing is the communication lines like telephone.

It’s not enough to have a phone line anymore; full well, Verizon isn’t interested in land line phone connections anymore. Just about every Internet connection is going to offer VOIP service. The old days of the land line are going away.

Instant Message services have been offering VOIP for years with their services, but now the major carriers are finding out they can have VOIP and just about anyone with an Internet connection can have phone service.

Facebook Instant Message is going to have VOIP capabilities here soon.

I’m not really stating anything that already hasn’t been thought about, but you have to sit back and realize that smart phones and portable Internet enabled devices are growing by leaps and bounds.

First, the PC was outsold by the laptop and now the Internet portable devices are pulling that gap closed.

And while you read that statement your asking what’s next?

Well, your answer would be the silent little ‘airband’ cards the various cell phone carriers are offering.

No one likes having to use a ancillary device to get Internet service; especially a laptop, but this pain seemed to end with laptops having WiFi capabilities built in to the laptop; thus is why I think the Netbooks are so popular right now.
