Anyone using alot of Voice command SW???

[bimerguyq]

I've just started the SmartPhone experience and would really like to use the voice command to the max in terms of calling-out what I want my Smartphone to do and them allow me to talk-it through the items I want to do such as:
1) Open new e-mail...then read aloud
2) Find directions from..to and then read aloud the turn-by-turn directions without GPS or with it.
3) And more of course...

Anyone already doing this and have suggestions or recommendations on what to get or Not to get fo rthe Moto Q Mobile 5.0?

Thanks in advance.

i think you misunderstand whats possible with Qs. They're essential normal cellphones with a pocketpc taped to it and the ppc functions dont communicate well with the phone features. For example, it is not possible to record a phone conversation with the Q because the software doesnt recogize the phone's microphone.

Also its common knowledge the voice recognition on the Q is horrible to the point of non-functional. If we cant even get it to call someone using voice how are you going to open emails by voice?

Maybe in a few years they'll get it right

But I just wanted the other features thanks I thought were available with smartphones...maybe through 3rd party applications or such. I've been reasonably impressed with the lookup and call by voice commands so far and wanted to expand it as suggested.
