I'd like to build an app that uses voice recognition. I've seen big companies like Google etc implement this feature, but I'm curious about doing it on a start-up level. Anyone looked into this? Are there any tools out there for us to do this?
OpenEars looks promising...

Based on Pocket Sphinx.
If you start here at wikipedia, you'll get a good list engines (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speech_recognition#Commercial_software.2Fmiddleware)
As I write this (June 24, 2009) it looks to me that are two viable open source solutions
Pocket Sphinx (http://www.speech.cs.cmu.edu/pocketsphinx)
Julius (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Julius_(software))
Both have been used in iphone apps, but the iphone friendly source isn't readily available.
As I edit this (8 July, 2009) I recently learned that Loquendo (http://www.loquendo.com/en/) has voice recognition and speech synthesis (ASR & TTS) for the iphone.
The best approach will probably be to:
Record the voice on the phone
Send the recording to a server that runs the speech recognition software
Then return something to the phone to indicate what it should do
The Dragon Mobile SDK from Nuance does what is asked for. You need an internet connection to be able to send the audio to Nuance's server and you get a list of text responses. You can then decide what to do with the text responses (e.g. ask your user to choose the one he meant or perform some action). Here is the link:

Any 3rd party, or built in stuff?
You can look at the MoMu release of the Synthesis Tool Kit (STK) library. It has a permissive license and is lightweight, however if depends what kind of "effects" you are looking for. It has all the building blocks to do sound synthesis and processing (class documentation here).
I think you should use this audio DSP library for iOS/OSX: NVDSP
It is easy to use but still produces high-quality results.
It didn't exist at the time of your question, but well, I think it's the best option today. And I really don't say that just because I wrote it! ;)
iOS 5 has some new built-in Audio Units for filters and some other simple effects. Before iOS 5, it appears that most audio app developers rolled their own DSP effect libraries (or purchased a commercial time-pitch library, etc)
Try this http://theamazingaudioengine.com/
Little late but might help someone else
Also late, but great sound effect libraries are made by LittleEndian.com

Does anyone know of any free/open-source text recognition libraries in C/C++/Objective-C? Basically something that can scan an image, and read out all of the plain text.
The most famous one is Tesseract OCR developed initially by Motorola and later become open source. It is also promoted by Google.
There are a few more, perhaps not as famous as Tesseract:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OCRopus
http://jocr.sourceforge.net/
Open Source OCR Library:
1.ABBYY Mobile OCR Engine is a powerful software development kit which allows developers of mobile and small footprint applications to integrate highly accurate optical character recognition (OCR) technologies that convert images and photographs into manageable and searchable text. Toolkit supports the most popular mobile platforms and devices - iOS (iPhone) and Android. http://www.abbyy.com/mobileocr/
2.Tesseract is probably the most accurate open source OCR engine available. https://code.google.com/p/tesseract-ocr/
Here is an interesting article on how to extract numbers from picture.
The author collects large number of samples to train his neural networks algorithm and I believe doing the image processing with OpenCV.

Is there an handwriting recognition library for IOS?
Shameless plug
MyScript, the company I work for licenses closed-source handwriting recognition technology for desktops (windows, linux, osx), tablets(ios, android) as well as automotive (Audi navigation system).
Our developer portal is regularly updated with new content.
You can try our technology on our web demonstration portal (beware some version of the Evernote clipper severely break HTML canvas interaction).
We also have various applications available on iTunes for iOS devices and Google Play for Android devices.
Hope that helps.
came across an interesting link:
http://iphone.olipion.com/cross-compilation/tesseract-ocr
i would update on my progress
None provided by Apple at all and none by third parties that I can find in a Google search.
could port this to iOS...supposed to work on MacOSX

Hi Im looking for examples of well written Cocoa Touch iPhone apps to help me see what good cocoa code looks like.
Specifically im interested in how people have layed out standard navigation apps.
I am also interested in how different people have layed out the model/view/controller files as well as general naming conventions etc.
Code which uses core data would also be interesting to see.
Note: These are all super old apps by now, so they probably aren't good examples any more.

does anyone know a AJAX based chat client that connects to a Jabber server, and does the same things as Facebook or Netlog chatbar, plus Multi User Chat (MUC).
I love the UI of cometchat.com/demo (left side of the chatbar is for MUC, right side Web-IM for my friends)
The only client I found until now is http://www.ijab.im/ - which is very new and doesn't speak MUC yet.
If anybody knows other libraries - thanks for sharing!
I recommend using strophejs and the book Professional XMPP with jquery and Javascript by Jack Moffitt.
strophejs is pretty much low level but very powerful, and the book code samples take you everywhere you want to go.
And, complementing Christopher's comment, speeqe.com is written in part by Moffitt and using strophejs !
You could take a look at speeqe.com — "a web based, group chat client that works with the XMPP/MUC protocol."
It's open source too..
