Hi Bob, the Cingular voice dial feature is not perfect, but it's a step in
the right direction.  I, too, for now, have a Motorola phone, it's a v180
flip phone, hope to have a "more speechy" phone in time.  The last time I
programmed numbers into my cingularStar8 dirrectory, You can only program in
20 numbers by the phone itself, although that may have been updated by now.
And I have had a few times where it wouldn't function as accurately as just
dialing the number, but that's been the exception rather than the rule.
Danny.
