On a related note, does anyone know what the maximum length of a memo one
can record with the built in memo recorder app on the iPhone?
Thanks!

Sandra, your post is an example of the imaginative and far-reaching
messages
I enjoy reading on this list. I am so glad folks are experimenting with
the
dictation option. I admit to distrusting it since it often makes errors
which users do not catch through proofreading, and this sometimes makes
them
appear careless.
Nevertheless, I agree it is a very worthwhile service. Perhaps more than
any other group, It benefits those who have difficulty typing or cannot do
so at all.

Hi there!
I was just playing around with my phone and I opened the notes app.
Then, in a new note, I started off the dictation function. I then
walked into the kitchen, where my partner was eating lunch, the radio
was playing, and there was some ambient noise. I told him I wanted to
carry out a small experiment with dictation and asked him to talk to
me. We then had a short conversation. I stopped the dictation function
and waited to see how much of the conversation my phone had picked up.
It actually did very well, probably, digitising about 30/40% of our
conversation. Something I noticed was that when my partner spoke the
dictation made a new paragraph For him.
So, what do I conclude? I am thinking that the phone has the
potential, under the right circumstances, to, say, digitise a whole
lecture. I think, it would need to actually record the lecture first
and then take its time over the digitising from spoken to text. But I
am sure it could actually do it as things stand right now. That is, I
think it can do it but it with me to have its own space for the
processing.
Has anyone else played with this function? Perhaps, there is already
an app to do it? I would be very interested to hear people's comments
on this as, I think, it may have greater potential, I E, in transcribing
radio programs
for people who at the moment can't access them due to hearing loss. Or
for students, journalists, and who knows what else?
My thanks for any responses,
Sandy
