What this means is that the voice recorder is attached to a PC, and the recording is "listened" to by speech recognition software such as Dragon Naturally Speaking and subsequently a text file of the recording is created. There is some kind of speech recognition software available for the Pocket PC market, but in its current form, it wouldn't run on a Braillenote. This doesn't mean that such software couldn't be designed for the Braillenote, but it does mean that such software would truly tax the available processor/memory resources that Braillenotes provide. Speech recognition is not perfect, far from it. Such software often makes mistakes, and therefore even assuming that Humanware's developers could work with the resources they have and come up with speech recognition software that would run on the Braillenote, the results one might expect to achieve from voice recordings would likely not be all that fantastic. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Michele Thredgold Sent: Thursday, September 28, 2006 8:41 AM To: 'Braillenote List' Subject: RE: [Braillenote] voice recorder I'm not sure.

Wouldn't it be great in a future upgrade to make the recording feature be able to translate the sound recording into text wherever possible, like some of the digital recorders can? This way, one would not have to take notes at the same time and it would save those of us who want to buy digital recorders a bit of money which we could put towards either other technology or every-day expenses. What do people think? Would this be possible? Cheers!

Bare in mind to check on the space on the disk that you are recording to because if you keep recording, you'll eventualy fill the free space. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of slerythema Sent: Tuesday, September 26, 2006 8:54 PM To: 'Braillenote List' Subject: RE: [Braillenote] voice recorder Can you multi-task while recording? ie can I take notes in Keyword and record at the same time?
