I guess I must drive a lot compared to some of you!It's very helpful once you are driving, but other than that it's of limited use...

Setting alarms at night and asking for the weather in the morning, along with asking where the thing has hidden itself a few times throughout the week.
Extremely useful.
I think that is where you can see it is not a gimmick. Most people don't pull over to read and respond to texts. With Motorola Assist and touchless controls, you don't have to. Very valuable features to the overwhelming majority of drivers out there.
OK but many people, especially younger people, don't do that and you are one of the few people I have encountered in this day and age who gets contacted by friends mostly by email and not text. I email pretty much only for business nowadays or if I have to send an attachment for some reason.I just wait until I have gotten wherever I was going to read or respond to texts. Or emails, which is mostly how my friends contact me.
it will stop someone from texting again and again asking why you are not responding. It also will stop someone from worrying about why you are not responding and it will stop someone from thinking you are rude for not responding.I did get one text while I was driving, and the "tell the sender you are driving"feature was nice. But it's not as if he was going to do anything with that info.

It's called being a mom and yes, it is stressful, lol! Anyhow, it is not my friends who do that to me, it is my family and I am stuck with them for life.Lol, my friends know better than to text again and again, asking why I am not responding, or worrying if I don't reply instantly to a text. It must be stressful to have to be always-available to lots of people.
It's a great feature for those who drive.I understand that's a great feature for some people. It's a feature I have used exactly once in the two months I've had the phone, and while it was nice, I certainly wouldn't miss it. As I said, ymmv.

yes, but for messages like, pick up my dry cleaning on your way home, did you put money in my account, where are you, what's for dinner, I forgot my soccer uniform I need you to bring it to me in the next 15 minutes, etc., I neither want to save, search or refer to them ever again, lol!I synch my primary email account every 10 minutes, the secondary one every hour, and gmail manually, not very reliably. I like that email is easy to save, search, and refer to.

that explains why you don't get many texts!Now that my husband has a smart phone, maybe we will start texting. He has a really cheap plan, though, and a text costs as much as a minute of talk time, and conveys much less information.
I do to ask the time. However it does not work for nagivation. It just opens google maps which has the last thing you navigated to on it. Useless.
Apparently because I am in Canada and don't have access to google music, It doesn't work. It just google searches whatever I ask it to play.
Useless. The two main things I got the device for (perfect for safe handsfree driving) do not work.
I think it needs to be something unusual and not too short so that it won't erroneously start all the time and mistakenly dial people, etc.The biggest problem with the Touchless Control, in my view, is the clunky phrase required to get it started. It sounds stupid, and takes too long to say.
I am not sure what you are talking about?I'd love to have voice commands as a part of my daily life but the fact that I cant even get it to play a song on my friggin phone is pretty discouraging...
