kind of sucks that the video player doesn't work on the iPad.

sucks that it's a video and there's no text transcript. whichever brilliant team of computer scientists gets a speech product out will win lots of money

I keep hearing that, but how much would you pay for a transcript of such a video ?

the sad thing is that that product will only work for english :)

on one way, recognizing (and translating the subtitles to english) other languages would be more important because most people already know english...

dude the way i see it is there are already APIs available, so once someone gets sound->text, you can already break down video->sound, and you can translate text_inEnglish to text_inSwahili ..

there's "english sound" -> text.. what i meant is that perhaps "chinese sound" -> text or something would be more useful fost most people around here
