It's not just about voice recognition. Computers are
already pretty good at understanding a clear human
voice. What's will make the breakthrough is speech
comprehension.
As a previous poster pointed out, it's easy to dictate
a first draft, but now how do you edit?
If the computer understand what you're saying this
could actually be useful:
"Okay read the first paragraph to me. What was that
last sentence? Okay, replace that with, "blah", then
read it back. That's better. Continue with the next
paragraph."
When I can converse to the computer like I would a
human typist, then we may be on to something... Until
then, a full-sized keyboard and screen is what I want.
