About once a year, I get excited about technology.
So far, my Ericsson T68 phone was the one, but this exceeds it...

Imagine this:
Your in a nightclub, or in the car, you hear a track you don't know the name/title of. Just dial 2580 on your mobile phone (easy to remember, it's the centre
numbers) and point the phone to the music source/speakers for 15 seconds.

Within minutes, you'll receive a text message with the track details.
It's checked against 1.5 million tracks using a voice recognition system developed by Cisco.

Costs 50p to use.

I'm impressed!

PS
I think it's UK based only.

Yeah, I saw this on B3TA.com, and thought 'Sure!' but it's absolutely amazing! What is it with parents though, when I found a really obscure track and it recognised it within like 25 seconds, I almost had a hart attack - my mom, however, says 'who'd use that!'
Typical, just typical.

Everyone should try it, at least once 2580. Check out http://www.shazam.com

Sad to say it doesn't work here in the good old US of A... Unfortunately, after we get the cool phones later then everyone else, we have a very basic GSM network. Hehee America the greatest country in the world

Ok well seeing that Shazzam made it why not contact them and ask if they know any Swedish services they probaly won't respond because your asking for a service which isn't theres but it's worth a try.
