Voice Recognition on the iPhone Hack

[G4R2]

Here's a voice recognition hack that was probably inevitable:

ok now that is very cool.

In general I'm pretty anti-hack but if that's legit I might have to change my thinking on the issue.

I hope apple gets into both voice creation and voice recog after leopard ships.


I really think, due to the leopard delay, we are only seeing half of what was supposed to ship on the iphone.

It's not clear whether you can really call this a "hack" like the others. VoiceSignal is a well respected company. Their software is on most if not all Verizon phones, the new Blackberry devices, Nokias, basically most modern cell phones. The software is completely speaker independent (no training) and it works really well on the devices I've used it.

It's not clear from the video or post whether they are just messing around by themselves or this is something they're callaborating with Apple on. Should be interesting to see where it goes.

As a starting point, I suggest everyone email them at comments@voicesignal.com and show your support for this product coming out on the iPhone. I did.
