Voice command my ( | ) !!!!!!!

[rzanology]

Okay so i decided to bite the bullet and buy the microsoft voice command thing. It works great, i was really surprised at the fact that i didn't have to train it. But here is where it all goes down hill. If the ipaq is turned off and i hit the voice command button (which is my calendar button) the ipaq wakes up, makes the noise....and then soft resets. WHAT THE ***K IS THAT!!!!! It does it eevvveeeery time. Great app, but if its gonna continue to do this then its garbage!!!!

Really? I know lots of people who complain about products or problems but haven't tried calling anyone -- even me, when I'm their sysadmin.

In any case, have you first tried installing it on a pristine iPAQ? Backup, hard reset, give it a shot. You wouldn't know if it's a conflict with another application until you try that. If you can still reliably simulate the problem then, I'd really report it to Microsoft -- feedback on something easily duplicatable and as drastic as that would certainly be heard. In the worst case, you could demand a refund.

Janak has a good point, try it that way and see what happens. unfortunately not all software works well together :roll:
we all hve complaints about ms, i dont think it has done any good nor changed much for our own good and theirs and their products. i wonder if they caneven keep up with their own products.
what is the warranty policy on it? returnable?
he sound a bit upset does he not :mrgreen:

Right - stop using them then, no one is forcing you.

As of yesterday it seemed to be working fine. I loved the software from the get go!...i think its the best pieace of software to come out sense wisbar....but i was simply saying if they put all that work into making it the great app that is it and over look the simple things like having it actually work well...then its garbage. And about the microsoft comment...who da hell said some one was forcing me to use them? da hell does that have to do with anything?

I've been using VC since it came out without any issues. My notes sync fine and I don't have any problems with the device waking up.

Did you install it to Main Memory, Built-in Storage, or to an SD Card? I put mine in BIS....
