Woz Says Robust Voice Is The Next Interface

Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak perhaps stated the obvious on Tuesday when he hailed Robust Voice as the next interface for personal computing.

Woz said he expects PCs to interpret a wider variety of voice commands.  Makes sense that it will happen here (mobile) first.  Also makes sense that Microsoft, the king of WIMP that continues to draw the Woz' contempt, will have nothing to do with it.

I feel even better now that I called out Microsoft last month for being a day late and a buck short on most everything, and their lack of effort and worse, vision, in creating a next gen interface.

Wozniak was at the reopening of the Computer History Museum in Mountain View, which is a pretty cool place if you get a chance to visit, especially if you're into math and antiques.
