And my argument about inadequate hardware & software hiccups will probably spill over into this discussion forum as well seeing as the next gen stuff probably still won't have usb2 compatibility anything. I mean, we're all pirates by corporate definition right?
Secondly, NOTHING nor ANYONE can read lips. Damn sure with enough of a percentage to put my reputation on the line. This is all a myth. Don't believe me? Ask anyone teaching or living in a deaf world. I've got 2 living in my house right now, so don't start. The only way lip reading works is if you can "hear" part of the word & associate the lip movement with what is assumed to be the rest of the word or sentence. And we all know about 'assume'.

I'm with LordRuss on this one. If we can't get voice recognition perfected then there is no chance with lip reading. I would think that lip reading is an art and way beyond processors and microchips!....

That's just what I want in my house, a device connected to the internet that can read my lips and sense my emotion.
If your fish seems sick, put it back in the water.
