When you speak to your car, what do you say?
Okay so I know Voice Command comes with a manual but I found only a very few of the commands to be actually useful so I thought I'd start a thread to share our favorite voice command that are actually useful. So far these are the only commands that I've been manage to find any use of and I'd love to hear of any other favorite commands that you've found useful...
"Show Map"
Display the map and useful when you are driving and the screen is on an audio or other menu
"CD Changer"
I'm not really using the CD changer because I have the ipod kid but I figured out saying "CD Changer" switches the audio to the iPod where you last left off. Useful for when you have satellite radio or some other audio program and want to listen to your iPod (or CD changer i suppose).
"Call <name of person>"
Sometimes it can be a REAL pain to program a phone number with voice commands but once you have a good 10-20 numbers programmed it is very easy to call someone just by saying "Call <name of person>." This actually works especially well with my Android phone paired to the car's phone system via Bluetooth.
"Next Track"
Useful for going to the next track without having to press the next track seek button. Works well with the iPod interface.

So what other commands have you found a practical use for?
