If my cell phone had perfect voice recognition or a perfect touch screen, I might be able to do without a keyboard.  While that doesn’t appear to be happening anytime in the next few years, a clever company called Jott has come up with something almost as good for sending yourself reminders.

You register at their website (http://www.jott.com), then whenever you call their special 800 number, the message you leave in the voicemail at that number is automatically emailed to you in both voice and text formats.
