Voice actions

[Kratzer]

So someone posted a response to the article that voice actions works great on their dinc. I'm callin BS. I can't find it anywhere....or maybe I'm an idiot.

It's 2.2 only so if you're on 2.1 you won't be able to get it.

And lemme tell ya one thing. I installed Google Voice Search and I'm not sure what they have done but my phone doesn't think I'm speaking German anymore! I tell it 'email Anna subject hello message test test' and it filled everything in correctly for me! Not to mention voice navigation etc etc etc. SOOOO useful to someone on the road a good bit. Awesome addition!

I came from BlackBerry and had been using Vlingo on it, but with my Incredible I didn't rebuy it. Then I saw the post for the new voice search and finally decided to root because I wanted the app. The app works really well, and is pretty fast. Now when I need directions while driving I can just speak it instead of finding it in maps through a search. I wonder if it gets better over time and recognizes your voice better like Vlingo claims their app does.
