BetaNews is reporting that Microsoft has sent invitations to testers to help out on "Voice Command," a product to control PDAs and phones using, you guessed it, your voice.

BetaNews quotes the invite: "Voice Command works with your PDA or phone so you can use your voice to control your device and receive information in a way that is easier, more convenient, and safer while you are on the go such as in the car or walking down the street carrying packages or even while sitting on a park bench."

This is great! The safety implications alone are worth supporting this as much as possible. See the BetaNews article for instructions on how to apply to participate in the beta program. Serious testers only, please.

I tried applying for this, but its only when I got to the survey that I realised that this was only for PocketPCs and PocketPC Phone editions.

It is NOT for SP2002/2003 phones
