Text to Speech (TTS) and Voice Recognition

[cpuOahu]

Which is better Pico TTS or Samsung TTS? I read that the Samsung version is better sounding, but won't say the street names in Navigation. (This was from a review written in May) Is this still true?

And which is better between Android's voice recognition and Samsung's Vlingo?

From playing around I thought Samsung's was terrible sounding. Pico I've never had issues with at all when used on top with Google's learn as you go features.

Speak clear and directly at the phone and I've written paragraphs.
