You mean as in the system itself or the voice commands or what? I think command and I think radio/phone/nav unit. I use mine every day.

I use it all the time to dial my phone or change the station or switch to my memory card for music. I love it!

I use it for the phone functions and to change channels primarily. Is there a way to switch from radio/ipod/sat. radio using the command dial? Like switching to Ipod when you've been listening to the radio? I'm sure there is but I haven't figured it out. I always have to push the function keys on the center console.

When you have your audio selected, move the dial up so that "Audio" is highlighted. Push the dial in and it will give you a drop down list to change to what you want.

I use COMAND all the time, from time to time if I can't look down I use the voice command to change stations, change tracks, or switch over to my phone or navigation.

I use it a lot, and it will also tell you the available commands.

I pretty much use it every day to change radio stations and such. I tried using voice for the nav and it's not bad...but using the knov itself is either faster or the same depending on how fast the COMAND responds.
