Jott on BlackBerryThe voice-to-text service Jott keeps improving its service. Making a new entry to the Amazon wish list or Google Calendar by voice is simply not enough for Jott. They went one step further, allowing select BlackBerry smartphone owners to reply to emails using nothing but their voice.

Still in beta, the free Jott application for BlackBerry is available for download from www.jott.com/bb. Once installed, “Reply with Jott” will appear in the full email reply menu. Select the option, speak up your reply and let Jott do its magic. It’s that simple!

Not all BlackBerry models are supported, though. Only users with latest models like Curve, Pearl and 8800 series of devices can use the new feature, but we guess these are the majority of potential Jott users anyway… Here’s the link to the full release for those who prefer the official corporate note.
