TAIPEI-- The future of wireless communications could be a world without mobile phones, where Wi-Fi signals pick up your voice commands from a chip-enabled lapel on your breast pocket, then Voice over Internet Protocol converts the voice signals to data and sends them across the Internet to powerful servers that identify the caller's voice and connect them immediately to the person they're trying to find.

The idea for such seamless voice communication isn't new.

I dunno
we all already have mobile phones pda's laptops etc, do we really need it?
