I downloaded Cyberon Voice Commander this afternoon after the review on MSMobileNews.

I have to say that it is fan-bl**dy-tastic!

It is really clever - I can't believe how accurate it is AND there is no training required (unless you want to dial a number not in ya contacts)

Although the voice isn't great - it's not THAT bad.. The interface isn't as visually polished as the one on the MPx220 - but at the end of the day it certainly does the job rather well and it doesn't cost the earth!

The MS Smartphone is the phone to have - to have this as well just completes the package.

Go order your copy now!

I had to add Voice Tags to most of my Contacts and Programs to get it to work well. Other than that, this program is the sh1t!

I got 1.5 from Hangango early yesterday moring (about noon your time). Is that the same as the one in your link? It says 1.5 but the build number could be different.....

The review links point to newer versions of the app (newer 1.5 builds). The handango version is, well...er...crap :)

I have been using it all the time - It really is so much fun. All my friends are amazed by it.

I like the way that if you just ask it to call somebody, it will ask which number you require (work, home or mobile). Or you can be more specific and say call {friend} mobile...

The reading of new a SMS is good - great if you are on the road.

I have also just found out that the application can still be acvivated by pressing & holding the 'start' key even with the keypad locked! Kewl...

The version from the Cyberon website is the same as the one I got from Handango on Friday, I think. It has the same build number at least.

Well from what i remember of the handango ver it seemed to get worse the longer you used it and started off pretty bad anyway. It sounds as tho the one on the Cyberon site is better but i havent tried it.

Great proogram.

To bad it doens't work with a (bluetooth) headset, I only realy need voice dialing if I don't have my phone in my hand.

I attached a normal voice dial (phone c500) to the voice commander program and that works with my headset and sometimes I get voice commander to understand my command even when it is in my pocket, but it is far from ideal. Why didn't they implement support for headsets ?

And I don't get email working, it just says 'no new email' and I think that is because It only checks the oulook account and I don't use that one, And you cannot delete it so it doesn't work for me.

Digit dialing worked correctly without training and I'm not a native english speaker.

Must confess that I did have problems with Digit Dialling.. I found that I didnt have long enough to say the phone number (with area code) in the time the phone listens for commands. But then if you keep your contacts list up-to-date you should'nt need to use this feature very often..

...All the recommended problems are now under serious inspection that we hope to release an update edition, in the near future, that will enhance its reliability and capability further...

Its is very hit and miss with my accent. It recognises about 1 in five attempts. The start command is the worse So launching apps is virtually impossible. I can't train the basic commands, so its useless.

MS said they would bring out Voice Command for smartphone nine months ago. Its still not out. For all aggrivation and cost, both apps should allow typing and text-to speech in other applications like MSN Messenger

I can't seem to find the links in your article to the version I should download- where are they at? Can you just copy/paste it into your next posting. Thanks
