Here’s a question for all you tech freaks, gadget lovers, and all around electronic guru’s…Will the whole Speech To Text thing be the next wave of the future, or will it be a passing phase?  Will it be the technology that revolutionizes how we do, well, just about everything, or will it be another Chia Pet?  I really want to know what all of YOU think about this.

The reason I ask is simple, I just saw over on the Scoble Show, a video with the two founders of a new company called Mobeus.  Mobeus is a technology that lets you literally talk to your cell phone, and when I say talk TO your cell phone, I mean that, not through it, To it.  The video even offers up a pretty cool little demo where Mike Phillips, the company’s CTO searches for a Creedence Clearwater song by simply talking to it.  The speech-to-text in this new technology is waaaaaaaay beyond your simple “Training” style speech-to-text your phone probably has right now, and can literally (with very few errors) type what you say, as you say it, accurately.

So, my question is, in this Bluetooth age of wireless tech, simple innovations, and the whole world getting a lot smaller, where will speech-to-text fit in?  I’m thinking of the exciting implications of this when you pair it with an awesome Bluetooth headset like the MoGo headset.  Imagine being able to just speak directly into your headset, with your phone in your pocket, and being able to dial people, search the internet for songs or videos, or compose entire blog posts without Ever having to use your fingers.  Wow.
