Funny story

I was out with some friends last night and we saw a commercial for the Windows 7 phone. The commercial was saying how easy texting was while using it but didn't say how it made it easy.

My one friends goes "Unless they figured out a way for you to talk into your phone to text someone I don't get what this commercial is saying." I look all confused and ask, "Don't all phones do that now?" He looks over at me and says, "Wait, you can talk into your phone and text someone that way?" I was like, "Yeah, I thought all phones could do that." His only response was, "Well, maybe your fancy Sprint phone can but my iPhone can't."

I couldn't help but laugh.

Funny indeed
{Speech2text (app) capability has been around for while; I used it with Blackberry before switching to Android...}

I knew there had to be iPhone apps for speech-to-text but that fact that he talked about it like it was this new thing had me laughing.....LOL
