We're heading an HTML 5 working group on voice in the browser, and once HTML5 has mic support, Phono will use it.
- rdzah 16y agoAny guess as to when the <device> element (or api - Berjon vs Hixie?) will be adopted by a shipping browser so we can have this all-js microphone (and camera) access without a flash shim? My bet is Android webkit first (ericcson closed source webkit proof of concept already exists); a timeline would be nice though.

The live media capture parts of HTML5 aren't fully-speced out yet. http://dev.w3.org/2009/dap/camera/ http://dev.w3.org/2009/dap/camera/ With any luck, some browsers will form a defacto standard that solves the outstanding questions long before the HTML5 group finishes.
