    You can't change it. You don't have to train it either. Just make sure you are speaking clearly and that you don't have any weird contact names in your address book. By 'weird' I mean, don't say wuodka, but vodka. Try to stay as phonetically correct as possible and try to use a Brooklyn accent.

    Voice recognition on the N73 is probably as good as it gets. Especially considering that you don't have to train it. I avoided this feature on the Moto Vxxx like the plague because you had to save each individual voice entry.

    It doesn't like acronyms...it will try to look them up by sound. So, if I say I F R, it really wants to hear "iffer." So, for the nickname, I have to go in and edit it to say something like "eye eff are."

    different language packs will change the voice recognition. When I first got my N80, it was asian firmware, and didn't understand a thing i said, and I speak pretty clearly. With the euro pack, I have zero problems.

    if you have a bluetoth headset connected you should just have to press the "talk" button. If you don't, on most of the s60 phones, you press and hold the right softkey for a few seconds.

    Rcadden to the rescue again!

    do you know if there's a "north american" language pack? (i checked your site, nothing for "language" popped up).

    edit: is there a voice button on your phone? i press and hold the E50's voice button to get it to work.

    No. the only phones that I know of that have a voice button were the 668x series and I guess now the E50. I freakin miss it, though.

    Thanks for checkin the site. I'm going to do alot of work on it today, I think I'm moving it to TypePad, it's just so much easier. Also my laptop died on monday is why I'm a week out of date. Of all weeks for it to die, right? Geez.
