I do have problems with Vlingo completing instructions. It often doesn’t understand my commands…and no, English isn’t a second language for me, and I know how to enunciate my words. Vlingo works fine, for what I use it for, and how often I use it.

I no longer have an iPhone, so I have to go with what’s offered for Android. If I stay with the Android platform, I do expect Vlingo to step it up a few notches and do the darn thing. It needs more functionality to make it necessary for me. I don’t use voice command that much anyway. It’s nice to have when my hands aren’t free. But if it all went away, no sleep would be lost.

I do wonder if some of the Siri naysayers have actually used it, because some of the responses (all over the web) sound like the typical knee-jerk response to anything Apple. I’m not talking about guys dragging their tech-challenged girlfriends into an Apple store, to rev up Siri and ask it who’s its daddy (I’m a woman, and yeah I said that). I’m talking about actually using it for something…useful. When it works as it should, it’s a great thing. No question.
