Motorola Z9
Voice Dial
Sorry, I should have started a new thread!
Hi:
Just went down to the AT&T store and held one of these (the Z9). All was well until I asked the salesperson to demonstrate voice dial. He could not get it to work and went to the counter to consult the Motorola Web Site. He came back with a blank look and noted Motorola did not include this feature on either the Z9 or the V9.

I did review the Z9's owner's manual on the Motorola site and it seems to imply that a headset must be used in order to use VD. Again, as I don't want to go around looking like Mr. Spock, this seems to be a de...

Sorry, I don't know what I was smoking when I created, "complexitivity", but I'm sure it was good!

It has Voice Dial and no doesn't have to have a headset connected to use, just holding down the send key for about 3 seconds will activate it.

Thanks for the reply. I could not believe that something this basic could be omitted. As this phone was not on the sales floor yet (had to go to the stockroom to grab a demo), I'll cut the sales guy some slack.

I actually had to break out the manual to find the answer myself, I knew it had it because of the "Voice Dial Setup" under Settings/Personalize , just didn't know how to activate it.

It has voice dial, it is just incredibly weak. And by incredibly weak I mean when it asks you "did you mean ____" and you say yes, it might move on to the next option.
...
and oh yeah, the application can sometimes take up to 5 seconds to load.
