I tried both speaktoit and skyvi and am very disappointed... Neither the very basic question 'What time is it in new york'... Hopefully they get better or a decent siri alternative is developed.
IMO Siri is worthless (and yes, I like IOS too). Just press and hold your search button and speak "What time is it in New York?" I just did it on very first try and first result in google is "7:57pm Thursday (EDT) - Time in New York NY"
I use the built in voice search for just about everything on Android and it blows away (completely) what I can do on my iPhone. Just isn't as cute and friendly.
Yeah, just as you try over and over and only have success with Siri, and Woz tries over and over and only has success with Voice Search, it's a very person specific experience. That's why I started my post with IMO. Regardless, I can't imagine anyone having issue with Voice Search on "What time is it in New York?" as it's merely a google search that's a no brainer for google so it's clearly a better option than many of the third party apps that can't even get that right (ie the one's he was having problems with).You are the first person I have heard of anywhere who thinks android voice search blows away siri...I have had the iPhone 4s, and now the skyrocket and while I love my skyrocket it isn't even close to siri when using voice search...but you know what they say about opinions...
I respect Woz...although he may be a little past his prime...that said...voice search can't find people I call every day...like my girlfriend...or my friend Les...Call Les Wag _ _ _...voice search ...call las vegas......and the thing I miss about my iPhone is saying "wake me at 7 am" and 100 percent of the time having the thing set my alarm correctly...with no additional apps...ymmv...and Woz's too.
