I'm loving the voice to text feature on my Evo, using it for texting, e-mail, searches and posting here at TNMC. It's quick and easy.
However when sitting at Starbucks for a fast break and saying clearly into my phone
"I made a phone call and according to Jermaine, Michael and the whale were trained together in the moonwalk, the big difference being the 1000 gallon splash the whale performed at the end of the move" people take a second glace my way.
It's kind of funny.

After you return from your next Hedo trip, you should dictate a trip report into your phone ... then you'd *really* get some interesting looks!

Better yet, do it at hedo to help remember what the alcohol makes you forget.

Running a smartphone in Jamaica - not a good idea. Data roaming charges are huge. I take my SIM card out of my Android and put it in my old RAZR when I travel overseas.

I don't know why you would even want to send your voice to Tex in the first place.

Thats silly, sending your voice to someone is why you have a phone.

I thought maybe he was working on some kind of ventriloquism act.

If he isnt he should probably take his hand out of the back of Tex's shirt
Edited: Although Tex with a NY accent would be interesting

Yes, but not as interesting as Gary with a Texas accent.

The app doesn't recognize voice inflection, so when you complete a sentence you have to say "exclamation point" or "question mark". The "s" and "f" word come out as "####" -- "ass" comes out as "ass".
The next time I'm with Tex I'll ask him if he'd like to swap accents for fun, for some reason I don't think he could do the NY accent but I think I could do a Texan.

That could be confusing unless the context is clear... Id hate to call someone a "fuckface", only to have them think I called them a "shitface" because all they saw was "####face"
