Sprint Nextel: Drop Voice Command

Story posted: April 23, 2008 - 1:35 pm EDT

Sprint Nextel Corp. is quietly dropping its Voice Command service in July.

The carrier is informing customers via its Web site that it will discontinue
the server-based offering, which allows users to dial two buttons then give
voice commands to place calls. The service, which is available on any Sprint
Nextel CDMA phone, includes a Web-based address book that can be accessed by
voice, online and through Sprint 411.

They sent me a letter also. One of the things I used it for
"Flight Information", was easy to use, until they changed the menus
around and it did not go straight to flight information, so I am not
going to miss it much. I will just have to use "Voice Commands" on the
phone instead.
