It will compete with iPhone and Blackberry in the future. Users will have more choices,….good.

So you’re cell phone can listen to your voice and relay your words to over the net in a machine readable form?

anyone else think this is kind of creepy and bigbrotherish?

Post1, not sure it would be any different than their search engine.

@ Mr. Phillips, Well written, but of course he’s missing the transcription in the packets. Doesn’t transcription happen client side in the app?

The app uses the MIC to record, then it ‘decodes’ the sounds into phonemes which it submits. Then google gives a binary response which correlates to the final search.

So basically, the guy knows nothing about transcription and is asking (someone else) to do all the work.
