Agree, I wasn't suggesting users would download a special app to use it - I'd like to see the tech make its way into the OS for all voice input.

I can see why the cloud processing makes sense for certain applications / licensers / acquirers (e.g. a VoIP provider like Xoom), but voice comms is really the domain of smartphones, and my hunch is most are plenty powerful enough to do this processing locally.
