Two questions, guys:

1) Anyone have rumers(or facts, better yet) concerning upcoming NX style clies? Anyone know some good sites for rumors? I want to try and find out if some totally uber NX-100 or whatever is around the corner, with the awesome features and form-factor of the 70/73/80, but with bluetooth and/or wifi and more ram. It makes sense...I dont' expect it to be before the next Palm OS is live, so at least several months from now. But I'm curious now. :)

2) Is there such a thing as speech recognition software for a Clie? Something like Dragon naturally speaking, that could take a voice recording and make it a text file?

don't think the next update will be a NX....most likely to be a NZ / TG update...

Voice to text for the Clie? nope...

Being a Dragon NaturallySpeaking user, I can tell you that Dragon CAN use a source file such as a .wav to interpret voice-to-text. I have yet to try this with my Clie, but it is a GREAT idea.....
However it does require the processing power of a computer (you should see how long it takes Dragon to start up on my P4-3.0(HT) with 1GB RAM), and IMHO is not something that could/will be ported to the Clie anytime soon.
