Voicebox on Discovery Channel

Our friends at Voicebox are featured in a Discovery Channel video that gives a nice overview of the types of things you'll do when SR is perfect. Many of the examples are impressive, like the in-car scenarios for changing radio stations.

You have to be really, really careful when you make claims about speech recognition, because it's easy for users to find examples when it doesn't work.  We're struggling with that right now, as we decide how much to talk about the SR in Vista. Should we say, like Dragon does, that we have "speech recognition that everyone can use"?  Or should we be more reserved and let the recognition results do the talking?
