 Review of Microsoft Voice Command for Pocket PC
My idea of a good voice control system would be something that I wouldn’t have to train, that wouldn’t need a large and powerful PC to run, and that would allow me to actually perform useful functions.
Microsoft Voice Command for Pocket PC was designed from the start to be speaker independent, not require any voice training, allow interaction with the Pocket PC in a conversational style, and have easily available help functions.
Voice dictation is not available with this package, but that function usually requires training the software so as far as I’m concerned it would be too much of a hassle to use.

The idea behind Microsoft Voice Command is great: you speak to your Pocket PC or Smartphone, and it does things for you that you’d normally do by doing a bunch of tapping.
In theory, this sort of voice command is really useful, and Microsoft’s implementation includes a smattering of the things that make sci-fi fans wet their pants.
The only reason I’d ever use Voice Command is in situations where using my hands would be difficult, but the software puts me in the uncomfortable position of getting halfway there by voice and then using my hands to do the rest (sort of like a bad date).
