I understand your anger Ewan because based on this demo it looks like most of the messages are human typed and thats the issue.

They vet their staff, give them dumb terminals with no net access or usb ports and don't allow them to bring phones into the work area, so thats a good thing.

Still, it doesn't do what is says on the tin does it?

I'd be pretty pissed if I had invested $200 million in what is a glorified call centre message transcribing service.
