iDicto
very simple device (like dictaphone) over cell phone network + web services | |
very simple device (very compact): one button - "record message".
how it works:
when you buy "sim-card" (like for cell phone), you receive ID (sim-card id) - it's your id for access to your voice message box (via internet).
New telecom company "iDicto OPERATOR" offers its customers:
- sim-card
-
device (iDicto) with "one button" ("record message")
- web-services:
manage account (voice message box) - play/delete records, convert records to any audio formats, download record as mp3 file (and for inctance, to iPod), get link to record for blogs, decoding record and save as text file, share (subscribe) voice box to other service users

Welcome to the Halfbakery. |

OK, so it's a one-purpose cell-phone
linked to a sort of web-linked
"voicemail" service? |
|
|
I'm not sure the advantages would be
enough. Most existing phones will let
you record sound directly on their
memory (and phone memory is big,
now), or you could just phone yourself
and leave a regular voicemail, or
(presumably) one could make a simple
dictaphone with a few Gb of storage
much cheaper than a device that used
the mobile networks. |
|
|
I agree about the other functions being
good, but you could get those
(presumably) by downloading a
recording from your phone into your
computer or PC? |
|

Nice try, though. Welcome to the HB
and beware of the natives. |
