I haven't but would also be very interested to see if anyone has, since M$ say it is available for US only- why is that, does anyone know?

Hi,

I used microsoft voice command...but it didn´t work out...many "screen" mistakes..

It only works about 2-3 weeks....after that i press the green button to phone somebody and i got a hard reset... :x

i never used it again and my mda is working fine now....

Am in the uk, i have been using the voice command since mid 2004 from 1.01 to 1.5upgrade. it works for me. Though its not perfect but the 1.5 version is a great inprovement. I currently have a cold .. tried saying the following commands "what time is it", "play pink floyd" it seems to work for me.

sometimes i tend to pronunce names or files names like the program would, so media player would be "midia pleyer" or "Gwen Stefani" Gwen Stephanie

at least i don't have to train the program :lol:

i personally recommend Fonix VoiceCentral 2.0

this program not only allows you to do what Microsoft Voice command can do, it has a feature where u can mark those program/contacts that you will use often and unmark those that you dont wish to use at all.

this will help to minimize the confusion of calling name that is close to each other.

secondly. it also allows you to record your voice for the particular contacts or programs, so that you can easily call them out.

The reason why Microsoft disallow the program to be exported to world wide is because they are trying to control the piracy, if i am not wrong

I use vocie command myself and have had no problems, no voice training and it works perfectly, quite cool just saying "Play album by blah" and WMplayer just fires up and belts the tracks out.

I use my XDAIIs as a MP3 player and have it picks my voice up even in my coat pocket walking down a busy street.

Only minor gripe is that as it's only sold in US the voice dialling won't recognise UK dialling codes (only us formats) so this means you can only voice dial numbers form contacts

Got my copy on one of those extended trials :wink: ,if you can't get hold of a copy let me know and we'll sort something

[keithhiap]

well, if the program is intended for US, even there is a way to sort the program, it might not work well with in my country.

you know what i mean :P
