VoiceSignal has just released VoiceMode 2.0 for the N95, and it has been something all of us tech junkies have been waiting for. Whether you text all the time, or have never sent a text message in your life, you'll love VoiceMode 2.0, the easy to use text input method that lets you enter text by saying what you want rather than having to use the keypad! You can use VoiceMode 2.0 to add text to messages, notes, calendar entries, and even documents - almost anywhere that you can type.
One of the best things about VoiceMode 2.0 is that the more you use it, the more it becomes accustomed to the sound of your voice, and the better it works (it took me roughly 2 days to get it to suit my voice). When VoiceMode 2.0 does make a mistake, you can correct it easily by highlighting the mistake and either selecting the correct word from a drop down list or alternatives, or by typing in the correct word using the traditional keypad interface. It's that simple!
Having bought and tried the application myself, I have to say that i'm quite impressed with the degree of accuracy on this software. Even in Noisy conditions it manages to pick up most of the words i say. However, one anoying thing about this applications is that it collects information about how you use the product, then sends it to the company(VoiceSignal) to help them furthur improve their product. Since there's no way of turning this off, i had to mess with the MMS settings in order to stop the feedback messages from being sent. Another problem caused by the product is that it eats up the N95's RAM. With the application running in the background, i only had about 7.0MB of free RAM, although you can easily trn it off when not in use.
In conclusion, i think VoiceSignal has done a fairly good job and it is certainly a groundbreaking way of typing your text messages. No more sore thumbs then!
Cost: EUR 9.99
Pros: Fun to use, saves time, keeps your precious thumbs pampered.
Cons: Eats up RAM, regularly sends feedback to the company.

Thanks for the nice review.
I need this type of SW as I have a hand problem.
I do like to know how to prevent the SW from sending the feedback. How is this feature disabled by the user.?
Thanks
John
Thank you for visiting Voice Of Teenagers.
There is a simple way to overcome your problem. After using this SW, i found out that there is ONLY ONE way to stop the feedback sending. I worked out that you have to set your MMS settings to "not defined" or any setting that is NOT VALID.
That way, every time VoiceMode tries to send feedback, it will not succeed. This method works so well that you will not even get any error messages.
Please update me on how this goes.
Hi Zi and Ck
Thanks for your prompt reply.
However I have a problem. I am not technically familiar with this N95 phone. Could you describe exactly how to go about doing the MMS settings.
I went to menu, settings, phone, then got lost.
Rgds.
