Ok so here's what I think we need:

A program that can be assigned to a key. For instance, if I hold down the center button in the middle of the dpad, it launches this voice recognition program. This could be done with AEButton.

Once the program is launched, it temporarily records a sound file onto the storage card using the microphone just like voice recorder.

When there's silence or 30 seconds is up (whichever comes first) the recording stops, and immediately the recording is converted into text.

After this, the text is sent out via sendkeys as if you were using the keyboard. The program will only work if a textbox is in focus first, and saying things like "arrow up" or "arrow down" won't do anything other than write the words "arrow up" and "arrow down."

I don't need anything fancier than this. All I want is a program to record a breif message, and output the text, then exit. This must sound much easier than it actually is.

Does Live Search translate your voice using the phone or does it work like the Instinct's Live Search worked, where it would send the audio file to a server for translation?
