I would prefer that instead focusing on text to speech technology, focus on speech to text technology. I used to train handicapped people using voice activation, using Dragon Dictate on windows and it worked flawlessly. This was on Pentium 133mhz systems.

That would be one handy little dictation machine. They could also incorporate the technology in their mobile phones for texting.

It could be the next big thing, we could be talking to our phones again
