Lwin, what do you control via voice on your car? How far have you integrated it? Does it do stuff on it's own if you have the radio playing?

Well, for now, autopc is stand alone. Soon, my pocketpc and autopc should be able to do stuff like... climate control, seat adjustments etc.

Currently, I can do the following with the autopc via voice.

Radio -- Change stations, change volume, change sound settins,
CD -- Volume things, next track, previous, pause play, random etc.
Address book / GPS -- look up names, addresses, call people, look up directions
Calculator -- calculate things
E-Book reader -- Read ebooks for me
MP3 Player -- Volume, next track, previous, play, stop, pause etc.
mpal - tell jokes, play trivia game with up to 4 people

Tell me the time.

Lwin,

You have a pocket PC & an Auto PC for companionship ?
Electronic devices are fine but not a real substitute fro human companionship.

You need to get out more.

My first SVX is named Bessie. This came during the multiple tranny failures and I would say to her in my best Green Acres voice "Come on Bessie, You can do it. Keep on moving Bessie" and it just kind of stuck with her.

Amy named the 2nd SVX "Eddie" for reasons I do not know... I know for sure it isn't after Eddycat, since she has never heard of him.

Other car names:
69 Mustang: Stacy
70: Mustang: Christine (after the famed car)
91 F150: PeteorBert (pronounced Peterbert) because we couldn't decide between Pete or Bert for the truck's name and it resembles the Semi truck brand.

Previous Vehicles:
2000 Denali: Spike
1997 Explorer: Clive
