There’ve been some dictation apps before now, but now Nuance, makers of Dragon, the world’s most popular desktop dictation software, is invading the App Store with their own. Plus, it’s free (for a limited time)! Update:
Dragon Dictation (link opens iTunes), which is based on the desktop Dragon NaturallySpeaking software, lets you do pretty much everything you’d use the iPhone’s keyboard for, but with your voice. That includes using the iPhone’s clipboard for cutting and pasting, as well as saying your latest Twitter or Facebook update aloud (warning: Saying “Just ate a sandwich LOL roast beef LOL” aloud may frighten those around you). Update: It is now available at the App Store. LOL! [ Nuance]

Filed under: iPad I was surfing on Amazon over the weekend and decided to see what would come up when I searched for “iPad”. One of the first results was: TrendyDigital WaterGuard Waterproof Case/Cover for Apple iPad, Blue Border and what caught my attention was that it only had one star. That seemed pretty severe, given that the iPad was only available for pre-order on Friday.

Filed under: iPhone You may remember that Verizon started running ads a while ago showing AT&T’s anemic 3G coverage map . AT&T responded by saying “Our coverage includes 97% of the country!” In the small print on Verizon’s ads they make it clear that AT&T does have coverage outside of 3G

Gmail may only be the 3rd most popular email service on the planet (behind Yahoo! and Hotmail) but it ranks first in the hearts of geeks everywhere and can be used in a variety of ways on the iPhone: IMAP (or POP if you’re really old school) right from the iPhone Mail app.

What many feared (or briefly thought about without much emotion either way) has turned out to be true: Microsoft PR has confirmed that Windows Marketplace for Mobile will be the only source for Windows Phone 7 apps, meaning that you can’t sideload apps, and that Microsoft will be the sole gatekeeper for all apps on the platform.

This is an unexpected treat: Windows Phone 7 ’s SDK came out today , and apparently it includes DivX support up through DivX6. That means no DivX7, but it’s still a lot more than you can find on the iPhone. More
