Medical transcription can be a pain at times, especially if you talk about figuring out what the doctor mapped up when he sees a patient. However we have seen technology takes its course and now the iPhone is set to change all that with the IQSpeak app which takes down healthcare dictations from IQMax. The IQ Speak app has the ability to take down dictation notes on the iPhone which provides more flexibility to physicians when it comes to jotting down their patient findings and notes. IQMax has already developed interfaces into over 60 different systems in healthcare.

Why type when you can talk? That is apparently the new technology that IM+ now carries which can surely make mobile communications a whole lot easier. SHAPE has joined forces with Yap Inc., pioneer of the first fully automated voice-to-text platform, to add the first of its kind, thumbs-free message dictation feature to IM+ for BlackBerry smartphones.

IM+ with speech recognition will allow users to dictate their instant messages and send them as text to their contacts in Facebook, AIM/iChat, MSN/Windows Live Messenger, Yahoo!, ICQ, Jabber, Google Talk and MySpaceIM. Recent studies indicate that over 70% of consumers prefer using voice to interact with their mobile devices rather than typing. Speech-enablement increases message creation speed and greatly improves the usability of instant messaging on mobile devices.

The beta version of IM+ with voice recognition will be showcased at this week’s Wireless Enterprise Symposium (WES) in Orlando, Florida, and the full release is expected at the end of May 2009.
