Jott - BlackBerry Goes Voice

If you are a BlackBerry user like myself, then the chances are really good that this news struck you as interesting as well. Obviously this is not going to be practical in all venues, but I think having voice email reply ability is just going to strengthen the BlackBerry for business users overall. Why do you care? Because when you are walking back from lunch (no driving please) or someplace else where the Bluetooth in ear, but typing back an important reply is key, using this Jott technology could really help a number of BB users out.

The Jott team started off with a great marketing message and wisely used humor. The humor used was still business friendly and speaking for yours truly, spoke to me loud and clear. I could genuinely identify with where Jott was going with in their meta message.

So what say you? Have you tried Jott yet? I am interested in testing them out as the service looks like a lot of fun. And I would be fascinated to see how my replies come out in the end assuming I am not doing two other things at once when replying using Jott. Hate to say something foolish- it’s been known to happen when I am on the phone. Ask me about the time I was using 411 and requested the number for “Get the ******* out of the turn lane you ******** “. Needless to say, the operator found my number request amusing. Totally an accident, but the timing was not all that good for either party I suppose.
