thanks le nubian!
Sorry, Captain. I'm real sorry. I shoulda kept better care of her. Usually she lets me know when something's wrong. Maybe she did, I just wasn't paying attention...

I wonder if I can get a free iPod out of this?
Not anymore. But maybe a free Centro.

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister
He was 8 when I was born, and our parents told him that he could name me.
You got lucky. My cousin is 6 months pregnant with twins and asked her 7 year old daughter what names she liked for them. Her answer? "Poo Poo and Pee Pee." DF's response, "Hey, middle names and everything!" Poor little boo is not ready for baby brothers.

weird mp3 voice recognition question - my craxy associates don't want to transcribe a sound file ... and are looking for voice recognition software that they can use to process/transcribe it instead. Beyond the ::lazy! lazy! bad! bad! :: wheelspin that I'm stuck in, does anyone have experience with this? Suggestions?
I don't think that any voice recognition software is going to be satisfactory for a voice that it hasn't been trained on. I use Naturally Speaking, and it is very accurate now with me, but with a another voice it makes a mess of things.

this is what I'm expecting. and then a panicked phone call to fix it.
I suggested escriptionist.com too - but they balked at the price (ie - not free). which gives me the 'you get what you paid for' escape.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
good grief, why don't they just transcribe the damn thing.

You know what's annoying? None of the iPhone apps have free trials. What if I download an app and it sucks?
Signed, $10 for Tetris seems like a lot if I can't try it out first.

Oh, and I just read a review that confused me - you can't play a game and listen to music at the same time? 'Cause if that's the case then I can give up on the app store right now and stick with Palm games on my Treo. The whole *point* of games on a mobile device is to have something to do with my hands while I listen to podcasts on my commute!

yeah, that's uncool. there are trials for most apps for my phone on handango.
