Bill Gates has said that handwriting recognition and voice recognition
are two big technology challenges in the current decade. They are
trying and definitely making progress. There is clearly more to be
learned and done, but what this system can already do is impressive so
long as that old devil, expectations, is kept under control.
I have to admit that as a long time Newton user this thread is
interesting.
The newton has great handwriting recognition once you train it.
Mine is nearly flawless now.
The biggest drawback to handwriting recognition seems to be that people
are not willing to live with 95% accuracy, or even 97 or 98% accuracy.
It seems it has to be very nearly 100% to be really useful
