When I ask the 'nice lady' in the Linguatronic to switch to Radio / CD / Telephone mode, not a problem - she chooses the correct mode. However when I ask for, i.e. CD-2 / TRACK 5, she's a bit confused and only chooses the right CD number, however the track that is chosen is most of the times not my requested one.

Furthermore, when I ask her to dial a number (Telephone mode), when I say SIX, she dials EIGHT or some other wrong number...

Don't misunderstand me, I am not too lazy to do all the above actions 'by hand', but I am curious as to how many people use Linguatronic and how accurate it is!

Used to use it and found the "lady" understood me most of the time, even with my accent! Rarely use it now bit of a waste of money methinks.

First of all, check out foll video. It was like that when I first tried to store phone numbers thru Linguatronic.. Great laugh!!

Yesterday, I decided that I wasn't going to be defeated by the Linguatronic lady. I spoke out the numbers clearly (and politely) - and voila! I stored 5 telephone numbers / respective names. And all that within 3 minutes... When I got out of the car, it was still daytime!!! (..for the ones that watched the above video).

Thanks, the video was a riot.

I have found that if you actually don't try to be extra clear and just talk normally you have a much better chance of "her" getting it the first time.

is voice control something that can be added later on or do you need to have it ordered w/ the car?
