this feature does not work. I have tried it maybe 15 times, and it worked once. Got tired of calling the wrong person, so gave up on it. too bad.

Well it just occurred to me, this started happening after I enabled restrictions in settings>general>restrictions. I just disabled restrictions and my iPod started responding properly.

"Cancel" or "Stop" terminates the Voice Control application only :) perfect for when running background apps ;)

You can also call by nickname as well. If you have a contact John Smith with nickname "Dad", you can say "Call Dad" and you'll hear back "Calling John Smith"

That's what was just happening to me. It also wouldn't recognize purchased songs as music, only stuff I'd explicitly dragged from iTunes.

I keep asking it "what is this song?" and it always says no music playing or phoning someone from my contacts list

I have same problem with turning voice control on while in pocket. I think you have to choose the option of setting password and then turing the voice off. It will stay off when you deactivate the password. Will check if that really solves the porblem.

This is the only way I have found to do it...

It requires a jailbroken phone. Ive not done it to mine yet.
If you (or anyone!) finds a way of doing it without jailbreaking, please let me know!

I got this on my 32gb 3rd Gen iPod touch. Love it. (I would also like to add that you can turn it on by holding the play/pause button on the earphone remote.)

Don't ever do turn it on. Once you turn it on, the only way to reset it is to restore the software.

Vlingo is so much more accurate that iPhone Voice Control, and it's free. I used it very successfully on my Blackberry Bold, and it works just as well on my iPhone 3G S.
