Excerpt:
Dan Miller, analyst for Opus Research spoke on this deal: “This is the beginning of some serious recognition that speech-enabling transactions open the door for some ear-popping revenue streams.”

The market is expected to get a major boost with the entry of speech-enabled search to advertising. Google would be a major player in this market. Miller added: “There’s a revenue spike when people start using these services. Carriers are finding ways to bump up revenues from subscribers, without raising data rate plans. The light bulb is coming on.”
