Advanced voice dial features (e.g., VGA-1000)

I'm looking to upgrade to a new phone and voice dialing is impportant to me. I see that Sprint's VGA-1000 (aka Samsung 620) allows "dial by digit" (you just say the digits). It also does not rely on a limited number of recorded voice tags but instead is able to match spoken names to any name in the phone book (that is, if I understand the feature correctly).

Do any other Samsung phones offer these advanced voice dialing features? Does any other manufacturer offer them? And, do these features work well?

Pass on the Samsung and get a Sanyo if you want a trouble-free phone, and I'll tell you why in a second.

Nearly every Sprint phone has voice dialing. But, in order to dial by the digits, you need Voice Command which is a service for $5. Both VC and VD can be fussy. I hardly use either because if you have similiar names, the network and/or phone will sometimes confuss it with another entry. The one cool thing about VD, it won't work if some other voice is very different from use. Typically, if the recorded voice is male, a female voice wouldn't be able to use it.

Most phones that come back w/warranty issues is Samsung. I believe that they have very poor quality control procedures. If you want a phone comparable to the VGA1000/A62...
