Later, with a team of Apple representatives hovering off-screen, Vieira was supposed to receive a call from co-host Matt Lauer in London. The iPhone -- billed by Apple as the most user-friendly smart phone ever -- displayed the incoming call, but she couldn't answer it. Apple spokeswoman Natalie Kerris didn't respond to an e-mail seeking comment.
she didn't have the headset? i know the headset has an answer button. maybe the apple people could've told Viera how to answer the phone?

I recently saw a complete debauchery of Vista's speech recognition software. Poor MS rep had enough sense to make fun of it and get the entire room of press laughing.

Sure wouldn't want that job

from my experience, you have to 'train' VoiceRec software to a specific person's speech patterns. Takes about a month. that's what they should have done prior to demo.

It's heartening to realize no major sR'er has fallen for the iPhone hype today. I'm betting a few will get one later on, but today was the day to stand and be counted as an iBot
