Nuance has just released their latest version of their PDF converter Enterprise. Nuance is most popular for it’s voice recognition [Dragon NaturallySpeaking] and imaging software, such as [Omnipage/PaperPort]. They recently released a free version of their PDF viewer that’s available for anyone to download and use for everyday tasks.

But now Nuance is really putting their foot in the door on handling and generating PDFs. PDFs are pretty much the standard for swapping documents, or storing information, and it’s also Adobe Acrobat’s native ground.

With the offering that Nuance is making with their PDF converter it shows that they’re really trying to push Adobe off their pedestal, and to show them how it’s done…

I find myself asking questions about the actions and thought processes of Apple lately…

I’ve to wonder with some of the decisions that Apple is making right now; are they doing the right thing? Are they playing a hard right stance to attempt to push technology the way THEY think the future should be? And just because they’ve so many iPhone customers right now; is that enough to sway the smartphone market to go the way they want it to?

I don’t know, but I hope this works out in their favor […] otherwise they’re going to be right back in the toilet, with their closed door attitude to their software and their hardware products.

And that didn’t help them very much in the past either…

Don’t get me wrong, I think the iPhone is a great device; I don’t have one, but ask anyone that’s shown me one- I like’m… they’re a phone, a PC, a GPS, a PSP and just damn fun to play with.. If anyone but AT&T offered connectivity to the iPhone I’d probably have one already.

The AT&T customer base is reflecting a clear problem with what’s wrong with the Internet; actually the lack of freedom of it. Net Neutrality is only a small shiny object that signifies people want freedom, but it’s money and governments that make decisions- in that order.

It’s the best thing to hit the internet since email, or the Pamela Anderson videos…  [smile]

Time Warner Cable has screwed up so badly on their decisions to not only impose caps on monthly bandwidth [and charges], but they have actually blundered the implementation SO BAD, it’s sparked a call for government oversight!

It’s amazing what’ll happen if you piss enough people off; or if your abilities to make decisions are over shadowed by the fact you lack synaptic action to take the tin foil off the pop tart before you eat it.
