How does Voice Command work for you? Is it worth the money? Does the recognition work good? I'm thinking about whether to get it.

Geez I wish I had a PocketPC..
 . Anyhoo - is there a large range of apps available for PPC, and do you find them useful?

Yeah there are 1000's of programs for Pocket PC, some of them good and some of them aload off rubbish
Most of the stuff I use is quite useful, but it depends what you are using your PDA for. I am using mine for taking notes in my lectures at university as all my classes are in Power Point it useful for making notes on all the slides etc.Most Pocket PCs come with a transcriber where you can just wright in your own handwriting and it will convert it to text, but I am not that good at it, thats where that full screen keyboard is useful.

I hate transcriber, but I have gotten very good at Letter Recognizer.

Voice command is awesome...
You say "Play music", it will ask you "What do you want to play? Album, Artist, Genre, or Everything?". I say "Artist", It says "Which artist would you like to hear? Baby Bash, DMX, Snoop Dogg, Everclear, Stacey Orrico, Weird Al", I say "DMX" and it opens and adds all DMX that you have on your Pocket PC to the playlist and will play it. Anywho, this is what I have on my Dell Axim x3i...

Magic Button - Makes it so the "x" button actually closes the application. Also can turn the text "start" into something of a taskbar. link |free|
Voice Commander 1.0 - the recognition is pretty good. And if all your music is formatted right, it is really nice in the car. Can't wait for 2.0 Pocket Informant 4.5 - meh...i'm not too impressed with this. It's like a dog to load. And by default it is too bloated and doesn't come with options to trim away the features i never access. |

Voice Command seems a bit pointless ATM... Best use so far is being able to run an app by saying its name... like "Start Turn Off" for NiceStart's shutdown...  So it's not really worth the money.
