Abstract :
In this issue, editors Eyal de Lara and Keith Farkas review a product that lets mobile phone users query information from the Internet using voice commands and one that provides real-time text messaging on mobile phones, which is particularly valuable to those with hearing impairments. They also review a GPS-based driver-tracking solution, the latest iPAQ handheld, and two components that simplify the development of products requiring worldwide wireless broadband access or more convenient audio input.
