I can't talk in class. Hell, I can't talk most of the time that I'm using a portable device. (That said, I would kill to have it for my media PC.) I had decent graffiti/gesture input on my first palm, and that was a long time ago. That is all I'm asking for on the nokia. Kalle: I'll check it out. Thanks! Eric: Speech sucks.

It will take some real power (hard for portable device) to get a real speech recognition system working, one that understands natural speech without making much mistakes... Until that day, I won't get me N800. :-) I guess the text input will keep sucking until the Moore’s law catches on.
