As Laura mentioned in this thread, there's a new technology preview available for Microsoft Recite, a voice notes recording and search application for Windows Mobile. If you try this out, please let us know what you think in the application thread.

Press Remember to record a thought. Press Search to retrieve your thoughts.

Remember

To start recording a remembrance, press the 'Remember' button, then say what you would like to record. Press 'Finished' to complete the recording and store the remembrance.

Search

To search for a remembrance, click the 'Search' button and say what you would like to recall. Press 'Finished' to begin the search.

Results

To scroll through your retrieval results, use your phone's up and down arrow buttons. Results are ordered by match score. The darkness of the blue color and the score bars indicate the match score.

We can think of countless handy ways that you might use Microsoft Recite… record your shopping list, friends’ birthdays, addresses, school happenings, gift ideas, get togethers, favorite wines… anything you might need or want to remember later. Recite even lets you remember and search in multiple languages.

Here’s an example. Imagine your co-worker, Paul Johnson, tells you about a book that he thinks you might like, Hot, Flat and Crowded, by Thomas Friedman. To start recording a mental note, launch the technology, press the 'Remember' button, then say what you would like to record; in this case, “Book recommendation from Paul Johnson: Hot, Flat and Crowded.” Next, press the “Finished' button to complete the recording and store the note. Later, when you’re ready to buy the book but are unsure of the title, click on the ‘Search’ button and say what you would like to recall. In this case, you might say “book recommendation,” then press ‘Finished’ to begin the search. Recite will then retrieve and play the book recommendation for you.

Or, you might recall that Paul told you something that you wanted to remember, but forgot what it was. In this case, click ‘Search’ and say “Paul Johnson.” Microsoft Recite will retrieve all mental notes that include the sounds “Paul Johnson.” In this case you would hear “Book recommendation from Paul Johnson: Hot, Flat and Crowded.”
