Nuance Acquires Noterize App to Showcase iOS 5 Voice Recognition?

Nuance has acquired the Noterize iPad app and may use it to showcase the rumored integration of their voice technology into iOS 5, according to TUAW.

If all the rumors swirling around the newly enhanced relationship between Apple and Nuance are true, specifically for the integration of voice recognition at the system level in iOS 5, then there will have to be showcase apps ready this fall to take advantage of the new features. It only makes sense that Nuance itself would want to brand such an app, and make it work spectacularly well with voice recognition.

Recently Chronic and Sonny Dickson posted definitive proof that Apple is indeed working with Nuance. A settings menu found in an internal iOS build reveals Nuance Dictation and Nuance Long Endpoi... switches for the Springboard. Another settings menu reveals Mic on space key, Auto-Record Input and other toggles.
