Speech to Text would be of immense use IMO. I'm thinking of family members who cannot read or write. Imagine them being able to speak into the XO to send e-mails. This reminds me of a time when village folk would come to my grandmother's to get a [snail mail] letter read because they couldn't read or to write a reply by dictating it to someone. Or, imagine speaking into the XO and seeing the letters appear as you speak and being able to recognize the shape and form of basic and commonly words. Speech to text would be awesome!
