Abstract

A Portable Electronic Device for telephony, electronic mail, audio, text, graphics, video, voice mail, text to voice and voice to text capability may be built into one multi-function, handheld, lightweight, transportable device. The Portable Electronic Device leverages the tremendous power of both the Intranet and the Internet. The Portable Electronic Device has a speaker and microphone to facilitate interaction between voice recognition software resident on the network server and the Portable Electronic Device. It is able to convert sound to data that can be transmitted to a network server. With the large computing/processing power of the local or network server the possibility to conduct live conversation in the same or two or more different languages is feasible. A text transcription of voice conversations and the reverse is possible.

12. The service of claim 7, wherein voice recognized output is customized to the unique voice pattern of a first individual and a second individual.

13. The service of claim 7, wherein the voice recognized output, accepts as input music and performs voice recognition on said music.

14. The service of claim 7, wherein the voice recognition output is customized to a plurality of languages.

15. The device of claim 7, wherein the portable electronic device is further configured to send the audio to a server, wherein the server processor executes a voice recognition or voice to text software program to convert the audio into text, and wherein the portable electronic device receives the text as converted from the audio by the server from the server using a cellular wireless data connection.

16. The device of claim 15, wherein the portable electronic device is configured to access an inside line path, and wherein the inside line path is a wireless local area network (WLAN) and access an outside line path, wherein the outside line path is a wireless public network simultaneously.
