Resurrect Voice Gear?
Is there any thoughts of bringing back Voice Gear? I know that VZW is late getting into the Bluetooth/Car arena with hardware but another area they are lacking is voice recognition dialing. Cingular and Sprint both offer voice independent dialing service which will permit owners of many Bluetooth equipped cars(Toyota,Lexus,GM,etc.) to use voice dialing. Even though the phone may support voice tags these are not accessible over Bluetooth.

Anyways, if you want the additional features that VoiceGear (now VoiceDialing) offered such as weather dial 1-800-555-TELL, I think the same exact software was in place before on VZW.
Cheers 😉

Phone voice commands don't work with most car Bluetooth connections. There is no Bluetooth profile that I am aware of that transmit voice commands. The only way to use voice dialing is to use a service such as Cingular's Voice Connect or VZW Voice Gear. What once seemed like obselete technology has new marketability to many customers with Bluetooth equipped automobiles if Verizon would only open it back up to new subscribers. I don't hold out much hope for this since it took VZW 2 years to get even a crippled Bluetooth phone to market. Even though the future looks brighter with some of the new product coming I still am not sure I will come back from Cingular without the Voice Gear capabilities. I live in an area where cell phone use while dr...
