My SpinVox account got activated this morning and here is the first result:</p> <blockquote> <p>Hi Matt, it's Matt. Hopefully this message will get converted into text &amp; You'll be able to understand it. That'd be pretty cool if it did. Let me know. &lt;*01> From: Graham Sadd</p> </blockquote> <p>It's not quite Alexander Graham Bell but for me it's pretty close. That is a word-for-word translation of a message given in a casual speaking voice. I think it's also pretty neat that it correctly identifes the sender (<a href="http://blog.grahamsadd.com/">Graham's</a> office phone) in the message.</p> <p>What a great service!</p> http://matt.blogs.it/entries/00002285.html
