hah, of course someone had the idea already and executed on it. But yeah, basically that but without the screen (probably would go a long way to decrease the cost, $299 is pretty steep for such a device)
One thing they don't touch much on is the STT, as they use models from third parties. You could definitely do something that utilizes this model and then feeds the tokens to some of their parsing code. I've been working on something similar to this, but burned out around adding the STT portion [0].
