IBM toolkit targets "multimodal" apps to Sharp Zaurus 5600
http://www.linuxdevices.com/news/NS8795523586.html

IBM announced the availability of a new toolkit for developing multimodal
(XHTML + voice) applications for mobile Linux-based devices. Developers
can use the toolkit to create multimodal applications -- programs that
combine GUI, speech recognition, and text-to-speech functions within a
single application -- and deploy them on the Linux-based Sharp Zaurus 5600,
IBM said.

Embedix," is based on technologies derived from IBM's Embedded ViaVoice
"advanced speech recognition" (ASR) and text-to-speech (TTS) engines,
combined with Opera's embedded browser, IBM said.
