I send this message to express my support for speech input into HTML forms in a non-platform specific manner so devices from desktop to handheld can equally be used. Please refer to http://www.bovik.org/device-upload.html Audio remains a secondary transmission format on the web today, mostly served up by a variety of proprietary formats. As with text and basic image formats like JPEG and GIF, sound can only benefit from a more generic approach. Generic approaches enhance the availability for users to produce and consume file formats. Sound will enrich the web experience and boost the productivity in many cases, for example education or training. It's interesting especially by analogizing with the telephone, its ubiquity, ease of use, productivity. Please bear this in mind. Gratefully, Miguel Marcos
