is this a sign of things to come??!! the new voice dialing app is pretty nice!! although , a bit buggy still!! but we only get to "demo" it for a few mins,, then if we want it, we need to buy it??!! i don't mind buying something,, BUT COME_ON!! $30.00!!! way too much!!! if this is how things will be in the near future,, we, as customers will start spenging more for a few "cool' apps than the phone itself!! and,, i don't mind buying something , if it is BUG free!! this app,,has forced my phone to restart itself AND it'll lose it's edge connection.. i hope you dev's are reading this.. way too much MONEY!!!!

come on guys be serious, a voice app that no one has come up with until now is worth money regardless it's buggy. They will give you free updates as they make improvements. The price is 27.xx according to the website, which isn't too bad for this feature, god only knows how much apple would charge if it comes up with one via itunes. Don't knock the hard work some developers have put it........have you guys donated to the group who put together jailbreakme.com?

The app itself is quite bad and nothing compared to native voice recognition apps that come standard on some phones.
Compared to Moto's voice app, this is a joke.
The price tag just makes it sad.

Most new voice apps don't need to be trained nor setup, are able to activate with a hot key and work with BT command push. Lets not forget they wont crash your phone.

While I respect the hard work, you cant attempt to charge for a half arsed app like this and camera pro....thats just pure stupidity.

Well my $0.02

I'd probably buy it for $0.02...

...your $0.02

I won't buy it, simply because Apple SHOULD have included it from the beginning.

And who knows, maybe they will with an update.

Really wouldn't trust apple on this, especially on there recent stock price disappointment. I believe they originally had the MacBook Pro Air for 17xx, and now the website says 1899. So you really can't hold apple to there word.

I agree with you guys, on the app should of been included originally on the phone and that native apps are less buggy, but let's get real, a native app has a decent amount of programming process that it goes through before going public and it still comes out buggy....a small time crew doesn't have those type of resources available, you have to on accept a bigger percentage of programming error. I would buy the app, if I didn't want to upgrade to the lastest firmware, which I end up loosing everything. Waiting till april is also pretty annoying too....
