Operation via speech commands
The speech recognition can
understand commands that are either naturally stated in sentence form, or
direct commands stating the

the command naturally, not too

direct commands.
Usually commands can be spoken in
a single command. For example,
"Call David Smith at work", "Play"
followed by the artist or song name,
"Tune to" followed by the radio
waveband and frequency/station
name, or "Find address" followed by
the address e.g. "123 Main Road,
London".
