<<It's an interesting concept, but I have to wonder how functional really typing Chinese or any language on a Palm Pilot can be. I would guess most people rely on a PC to do the grunt work of data entry and then linc it to their Palm.>> We should find out how feasible it is soon. Ericsson has licensed Zi for input through some of their just released new model phones. <<The issue of data entry in China has been an interesting conversation before. The number of Chinese characters and complexity may be a road block to widespread adoption.>> As I understand Zi's product, there are only eight basic input keys required to handle (for lack of a better word) the Chinese language. <<but some feel a speech recognition product using the new built in functions on the PIII will make PC's much more functional ... Speech recognition at the desktop and Kiosk will make a lot of people around the world immediately PC literate.>> Agreed; it's a matter of time to get speech rec. working well. How long? Thanks for posting the preceding articles and starting the thread, Mark; very timely. Best.
