Not to claim that I'm paranoid. But couldn't this linked in any way to climate change? :)

Actually there is one thing left, but it's also the kind of hard job that Apple doesn't handle well. Right now we pick phones based on how easy it is to enter data without a keyboard. That's pretty ludicrous when you think about it. If we could input data to a phone by speaking into it how amazing would that be? Yeah, I know, voice rec is hard, but when it comes along it's going to be the only kind of smartphone worth owning. And Apple isn't even working on it.

My old G1 did voice recognition really bad. My G2 does voice recognition much better (speaking German names in their English version is pretty funny). So as it looks, Google is trying hard to get voice recognition into Gx phones. Now Google has some brilliant voice recognition folks working for them, who really LOVE spoken words. (hi R., best wishes from Munich ;) Therefore, when the time comes that the spoken word is handling your phone, it might be a Google phone.

I can prove that she exists.

Once I sent her something after emailing her for her address.

After that she sent me a very kind email, a IBM robot never would send ;)

Enjoy!
