The title is derived from a 1992 movie - Sneakers, which I absolutely love. Total geek movie at the time :) in which they fool a voice recognition system.
Now the reason I remembered is this post on Techcrunch IT which got me thinking. Will voice ever replace the keyboard+mouse? Today I also read another post which asks a related question - touch will replace the keyboard+mouse?
The conclusion from the two posts seems to be that interfaces still need to be designed considering the eyes and hand for any complicated task/task carried out in an enterprise/public environment. There is no going beyond QWERTY and the rodent until the day they figure out how I can plug a computer directly into my brain and tell it what to do :). I agree, what about you?
