    I downloaded Vlingo today, it's a really cool program, but the voice recognition for web searching is hit or miss. It could recognize Vladamir Putin, but had great difficulty with Dell Laptops. I got Yellow Laptops, Miguel Laptops, La La La Laptops and Dallas Laptops.

    Oh well.

    Sorry. Made me chuckle.

    vlingo says it "gets better" the more you use it. I agree though - I've composed some wacky messages with it. Maybe I just talk too fast for it or something.

    I thought so.

    The last 10 minutes, I have been trying different names, Venus Williams came out as Indiana Williams? Yet it gets Michio Kaku right the first time? I tried slowing my rate of speech down and enunciate more. Again, it's hit or miss.

    It is awesome - I agree. However, hasn't it ever heard of basic punctuation? It can't be that difficult to implement - Jott does it, even Yahoo oneSearch does a decent job of it.

    I hate voice recognizing apps! Never work unless you talk slowly and clearly. I wanna just press it say it and go!

    How does it get better at voice recognition? When it makes a mistake like mentioned above, how does it know that it made a mistake and you did not mean xxx but yyy? When he got Dallas Laptops, how do you inform Vlingo that is a mistake?

    The amount of time that it take to go for listening to working to displaying the text is to long I could just type it.
