that may or may not currently exist.

i wish i had a way to record audio on a device (phone/pda would be ideal though laptop would be nice too), which would automatically convert it to text and optionally transmit it to my main computer.

aside from converting to text, there are several palm applications that will record and sync to your computer

^^^ the text conversion aspect is the part that makes it great. i could record my thoughts and reminders all day long, but at some point you'd have to sit down and type out what you listen to. i'd probably have to keep rewinding the audio to catch everything. that shit's annoying.

A holodeck.

Quote :

"Otherwise known as a holographic environment simulator, the holodeck is an enclosed room in which objects and people are simulated by a combination of replicated matter animated with weak tractor beams as well as shaped force fields onto which holographic images are projected. Sounds and smells are simulated by speakers and fragranced fluid atomizers. The feel of a large environment is simulated by having the participants suspended on force fields which move with their feet, keeping them in one place (a virtual treadmill); perspective is retained through use of sound dampening fields and graviton lenses which make objects, people and sound appear more distant. The effect is ultra-realistic simulation of environments, with which the user can interact. "
