This may be a little OT, but if you are interested in voice technology then you may be interested in the web sites listed below.

I haven't looked at all the sites, but some of the sites are extremely technical. One example is,
>>Rapid deployment is achieved through the use of Pangloss's EBMT and transfer-based MT, within the Multi-Engine MT architecture, which uses a statistical target language model to help select between competing translations.>> I read that sentence and thought to myself, what the hell did I just read:)

Other sites are not as technical. If you have time you may want to look the sites over.

Take care,
Kurt
