Is there anything like that for playbook?

Ok, you can do this on Playbook. However, you need:

- Blackberry Phone
- Bridge software on your phone
- VLingo on your phone

I have successfully done this, it's awesome. Here's what you do:

1. turn on blackberry bridge
2. setup Vlingo to automatically paste your text (without confirming)
3. press side-key and talk to Vlingo when you are in bridge
4. you will see your speech-to-text show up in bridge
5. choose "paste" and it will automatically type it into your playbook
6. repeat step 3 to 5, keeps typing stuff into playbook

I know this is not really full speech-to-text on Playbook, but it is a work-around for now that seems to work quite well. You can quickly enter dictation or text this way with Vlingo directly into your Playbook.

In fact, I am planning on creating an App that helps with this function. Stay tuned! It will still require Vlingo on your phone, but the Playbook side would be easier to deal with.

edyb:

What app do you have running on the pb when doing this? Or any app that allows typing like email, or docs-to-go?

Thank you all for the great help, can't wait for the Sayit to come. I have been rocking the Vlingo setup ( good thing I got it when it was free compliments of blackberry ) it works for every app that you can write in on the playbook for those who are wondering
