I didn't add anything substantial or inspirational but I fiddled with the
language of the preamble (more of the same will be needed):


The convergence of wireless communications with information technology and

the miniaturization of computing platforms have resulted in advanced
mobile devices that offer high resolution displays, application programs
with graphical user interfaces, and access to the internet through full
function web browsers.

Mobile phones now support most of the functionality of a laptop computer.
However the miniaturization that has made the technology possible and
commercially successful also puts constraints on the user interface. Tiny
displays and keypads significantly reduce the usability of application
programs.

Multimodal user interfaces, UIs that offer multiple modes of interaction,
have been developed that greatly improve the usability of mobile devices.
In particular multimodal UIs that combine speech and graphical interaction

are proving themselves in the marketplace.

However, not all mobile devices provide the computing resources to perform

speech recognition and synthesis locally on the device. For these devices
it is necessary to distribute the speech modality to a server in the
network.
